Jaiyede Afro

Jaiyede Afro is a collaborative studio album by Nigerian musician Orlando Julius and English band the Heliocentrics.

[2] David Maine of PopMatters called the album "a meaty, high-energy gumbo that is compulsively danceable, but also complex to immerse oneself in and simply listen to.

"[8] Paul Bowler of Record Collector stated, "Aided and abetted by some magnificent backing by the Helios, using the requisite analog set up, the album has the verve and feel of a classic West African long-player, but with enough subtle updates to prevent a slide into reverent pastiche.

commented that "Jaiyede Afro is not only a welcome return for Orlando Julius but also an excellent primer for newcomers.

[10] All tracks are written by Orlando Julius Ekemode and the Heliocentrics, except "In the Middle" by Alfred Ellis and Bud Hobgood.Credits adapted from liner notes.
