Emmanuel “Mo” founded Afrobeat San Diego on April 1, 2023 based on his dream of elevating experiences and celebrating culture through dance and rhythm. Growing up in Lagos, Nigeria, he was inspired by Fela Aníkúlápó Kuti. Mo vividly remembers listening to Fela on stage at the Shrine uplifting the audience with charisma and sociopolitical messages.
