In early 2015, Afropop relocated its archives from a variety of storage units and apartments, and brought it all together in one place. The goal? Sorting, organizing, and preservation. But along the way, we also found more than a few musical gems. Today, join us as we dig through stacks of vinyl, and quite literal mountains of CDs, for the long forgotten, the
often overlooked, the totally classic, and the absolutely amazing, as we play some of the albums that we’ve been spinning in our office for the past few months. Spread love, it’s the Brooklyn way. Right?
