afrofuturism

rammellzee

sun ra, space is the place

wow! did a little research about this movement that must have started in the 70ies or so. didn't even find out. if you wanna know more about it, check afrofuturism.net. all i know is that it is about afro-americans and science fiction, expressed in music, art, film and literature and artists like sun ra, rammellzee or killah priest took part of it. (and madlib quoted/sampled sun ra on shadows of tomorrow)
