Biography

Antibalas, originally formed in 1998 in pre-gentrified Williamsburg, Brooklyn, started as a neighborhood dance and protest band. Over the past 24 years, they have grown into one of the world’s leading Afrobeat groups, praised for their genre-bending collaborations with music legends. Founded by saxophonist Martín Perna and including early members from the Dap Kings, the band has expanded its lineup over the years, drawing in talented musicians from the Daptone family and beyond.

In 1999, Antibalas connected with Duke Amayo, who quickly became a key member, contributing percussion, vocals, vibraphone, and keyboards. They gained recognition after releasing their second album "Talkatif" in 2002 and embarked on extensive tours across North America and Europe, performing at major music festivals. Their global reach expanded to over forty countries on five continents, solidifying their reputation as a powerhouse in the world music scene.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist's audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.

ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post ≥ 3.0% = Very Strong 2.0–2.99% = Strong 1.0–1.99% = Moderate < 1.0% = Low

How to read it: Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge intensity and scale.
