From your post you mean afrobeats is the general kind of music we play and Afrobeat is a kind of music... Cleaver
Have been a drummer for over the years now it never occurred to me.. I play all kind of music
I have a question is proper to say you are an Afro musician.... Africa is filled with so many afrobeats and besides some are technical
Can take 5 (5/8) be classified as one of the afrobeats
okay brother. Take five by paul Desmond and Dave brubeck can't be classified as Afrobeats, Take five is jazz music written in 5/4 time not 5/8. music written in 5/4 time tend to have that feel which makes it sound a little African because of the extra crotchet note . I think it will be more proper to specify if you are an afrobeat, Afrobeats or highlife musician other than just saying that you are an afro musician. But in some cases it is still proper to say you are an African musician.
