With her latest single “Dance to the Afrobeat,” Brooklyn-based reggae artist Minna LaFortune delivers a powerful celebration of global unity through music. Born in Kingston, Jamaica, LaFortune brings her Caribbean roots into conversation with contemporary Afrobeat, crafting a track that pulses with vibrant percussion, soulful melodies, and a message that transcends borders.
“Dance to the Afrobeat” is the lead single from her upcoming album Dance with Me Volume 2, set for release in June 2025. The track is irresistibly danceable, its groove immediate and infectious, but it’s the song’s deeper intent that makes it stand out.
Through lyrics that champion joy, movement, and togetherness, LaFortune invites listeners not just to dance, but to connect: with the rhythm, with one another, and with the cultures that inspire her sound.
LaFortune’s versatility as an artist shines through in her seamless blending of reggae, amapiano, soca, and Afrobeat elements. Her voice warm, inviting, and full of conviction anchors the track, elevating it beyond a typical party anthem into something more spiritually resonant.
