Tabansi Studio Band - Wakar Alhazai Kano 9 & Mus?En Sofua: four incredible slices of almost-undiscovered late-70s/early 80s Afrobeat magic, but not Fela?s Yoruba/Pidgin Afrobeat. This is Igbo and Hausa Afrobeat- two very different and rarely heard styles. For the first time anywhere, BBE is proud to reissue back to back two LPs that are so elusive that many Afro heads doubted their very existence until now. The beats are laid down by the seven legendary Martins Brothers ? of 'Money' fame- whilst vocals are courtesy of a multi-lingual Igbo legend, Prof. Goddy Ezike, one of the most extraordinary voices out of Africa, up there with Youssou N?Dour and Salif Keita, whose half-century career has, like fine wine, simply improved his voice. Wakar Alhazai Kano and Lokoci Azumi Ta Wuca (tracks 1 and 2) draw on Northern Hausa music, with it's Islamic inflections and skipping 12/8 time signatures more typical of the string and wind-based instrumentation of Kano and the broader sub-Saharan musical palette. Kama Sofos and Aka Ji Ego Ga Anu Nwam (tracks 3 and 4) are sung in Igbo, with all the percussive wonders that Igbo culture has to offer, filtered through a jazzy Afrobeat improvisational spectrum. Never before. Never again. New Afrobeats, in old bottles. Igbo and Hausa Afrobeat- two very different and rarely heard African styles. Percussive, dance-floor ready sounds, so rare as to astound even the deepest of diggers. The Tabansi Studio Band comprises the seven legendary Martins Brothers (of 'Money' fame). Vocals by Goddy Ezike, one of the most extraordinary voices out of Africa, up there with Youssou N?Dour and Salif Keita.

Great Exfoliator, Love That tThere's Three of Them
This three pack of exfoliating loofah poufs is exactly what I need for those times when my skin is super dry and I really just need a good scratching. Each loofah has the same scratchiness as scratching with my own fingernails, only it covers so much more area and does a better, more even job. It's easy for me to find soft loufahs for a gentle everyday scrubbing, but during the winter the soft, gentle approach just doesn't work as well. That's where these three exfoliating loufah poufs come in. They make a perfect supplement to my winter bathing routine. Each half of each loofah is designed to look like a beautiful flower in bloom, which I think is kind of cool and very unique. That also makes them very giftable in my opinion, either as a set or individually as party gifts or stocking stuffers. This set of three loufahs currently lists for $25.50, so $8.50 per loufah. Since I consider these both artistic and very functional, to me that's a good value.

Do not buy if looking for reusability
This product is made of a folded sheet tied together with a granny knot. And it is cut short on the ends so when it eventually comes undone (2 days) it's a nightmare to tie back together. On the plus side, though it says it's made of cotton, if you're looking to exfoliate your skin from your body, it's a loofah form of a songwol towel used at Korean Spas. So... there's that.

Sustainability good, texture rough
I love the sustainability of these but they are quite scratchy. They do get a little softer over time, but if you have sensitive skin beware.

Too scratchy
I know a lot of the point is exfoliation, but using this is too painful for me. I just wanted a natural material so I’m not contributing to more plastic waste, but I find I can’t even use these because they rub my skin raw with even light pressure. If you have tougher skin than me these may be fine. The only other issue is they are rather tiny.
