Afro-pop seems to be everywhere these past couple years. I have no problem with that at all. Fool's Gold [from LA - not the movie] is yet another band gettin' down with some hot grooves. Check out their new song Surprise Hotel and don't tell me you're not dancing. After the pretty extensive jam intro to get you going, the song really starts at the 1:30 minute mark when the vocals come in. Around 4:06, the structure breaks open and you are lead into a full on afro pop jam with faster drums, a killer bass line, and some sick horn playing. Even though the total song length pushes toward 7 minutes, you're still left with room for more. Dessert please? Remember - two 'S's' mean it's sweet...
