Some Afrobeats music came from in Los Angeles, CA with Fela Kuti and his band, Koola Lobitos. One track was "My Lady's Frustration" and featured a polyrhythmic afrobeat.

People love this style because of the big moves and raw energy. The dance style is a mix of West African music and American funk. The commercial dance scene in LA influences how it is taught, but some teachers stay true to the original style. There are tons of variants from different parts of Africa and the rest of the world.
