Welcome to Vol 201 of the Spread!

Hello and welcome back to the Spread, your weekly edit of all the best stories and global news about Africans shaping mainstream culture.

I finished the book I recommended last week, Yinka, Where Is Your Huzband? and have already started a new one. In between chapters, the internet has been delivering: Cardi B wore Meji Meji in her new "A Ha" music video, so the price is uppp. Then there is Angélique Kidjo, Pharrell Williams, and Quavo together on one song; what an interesting combination. I'm also already looking ahead to this year's art and fashion season here in Lagos and feeling genuinely excited. It's been a relatively calm weekend, all things considered. And if you're looking for something to watch this week, check out our post on African science fiction films, a perfect starting point.
