This summer, WNYC's Notes From America with Kai Wright has launched a new series celebrating different diaspora communities in the U.S. through the lens of music, and the project includes listener compiled playlists. Yesterday, NFA producer Regina de Heer spoke to Kai about the different sounds of Afrobeats, including the story of the song she chose for her Ghanaian traditional engagement ceremony. Regina tells us more about the series, the history of Afrobeats, and we take your calls.

This segment is hosted by Brigid Bergin.
