Neil McCormick, Chief Music Critic for The Daily Telegraph
"Thabani Nyoni is a wizard and true star, a prime mover in African music … from the UK. His T Bone Afrika All Stars have to be seen and heard to be believed, delivering stormy afrofusion blending the beats of that vibrant continent with dirty American soul and pop songcraft honed in the British dancehalls. Listening to their glorious debut album City of Kings it is hard to believe it was crafted under grey British skies. Think Dexy’s Midnight Runners colliding with Fela Kuti, King Sunny Ade and James Brown in a Northern Soul all nighter. This is the afrofuturist adventure we've all been waiting for…"
