Any time the groundbreaking bassist visits the Motor City — as he’ll do Friday, Aug. 8, for a Music Hall tribute concert — he is back in his second hometown.

It was here, after all, that Bootsy and his star-shaped Space Bass rocketed into the funk-soul universe, first with George Clinton’s Parliament-Funkadelic and later with his own Bootsy’s Rubber Band, with wind-me-up hits like 1978’s “Bootzilla.”

African countries around the continent are reclaiming their identity. This trend has been going on for a couple of decades in this century in the form of political independence, economic development, and the growing popularity of their art. Part of that reclamation is music and taking ownership of their own songs. The two genres leading that movement are Amapiano and Afrobeats.

Not only are Afrobeats and Amapiano artists exporting African culture for the rest of the world to see and hear the stories of the West and South African peoples, but they are also seriously impacting the music industry, both commercially and critically.
