Lara and the Beat

My top 5 Movies in Descending order 1. Lara and the Beats 2. The Devil Wears Prada 3. Meet Joe Black 4. Coming to America 5. Bridesmaids

I am from the states, and I'm a HUGE happily addicted Afrobeats fan. So the music for me, especially the perfect placements for the scenes, was the sweetess cherry on top of my absolute favorite movie. Oh my God where do I start. The opening shot making a HUGE statement without saying a word makes this movie something every African American should see. Loved this movie MUCH more than the movie about a ficticuous African country that doesn't exist. This was hands down 100 times better set in a beautiful city in an African country that is actually REAL. As real as the chemistry between Lara and Sal. Much appreciated the drool worthy eye candy BTW, yummy! This Nigerian Slum Dog, well in this case Billionaire, was robbed of all of it's glory, due to a heaping flavorless serving of heavily promoted Disney white rice trying to pass itself off as Jollof with food coloring. Lara and the Beats was the authenic soul nurturing plate of REAL Jollof with plantains, smiles, and love. Hopefully now it will become viral on the small screen, and get all of the accolates it deserves. A must see multiple times.
