highlife
Highlife is a musical genre that originated in Ghana in the 1900s and spread to Sierra Leone, Nigeria and other West African countries by 1920. It is very popular in Liberia and all of English-speaking West Africa, although little has been produced in other countries due to economic challenges brought on by war and instability. Highlife is characterized by jazzy horns and multiple guitars which lead the band. Recently it has acquired an uptempo, synth-driven sound. Joromi is a sub-genre.

Love and Death
Ebo Taylor Lyrics
Brothers and sisters
Lend me your ears
Listen to my story
Of love and death
I felt deep in love
With ___
A girl of my dreams
You see what I mean
On our wedding day
She gave me a kiss
With tears in her eyes
It was the kiss of death
Love and death
Walk hand in hand
The way that I play
Is just the same
Love and death
They walk hand in hand
The way that I play
Is just the same

Can someone please help with the lyrics in English?
Love and Death
They walk hand in hand
The way to "vibrate or be brave"
Is just the same.
Is he saying "the way to vibrate" or "the way to be brave" ?
Thanks in advance for your help!

Im Mexican, but many of us are mixed... this song has always struck a chord in my soul...the African ancestors are alive in me. Beautiful music!

Thanks for acknowledging African ancestry in Mexico. A lot of Mexicans that take these DNA test are finding out they have some African blood. We are all one. Peace.

Driving in the city of Warsaw and tuned in to the Radio, I was caught by this afrobeat and it was heavenly and i was very proud once again been African and for such a song to be played on a local radio in this eastern part of europe shows how great this music is. Now i kept the music on repeat on my phone. Thank you Mr. Taylor

If you're so proud of being African, why are you in Europe?
