Honeysuckle Rose was composed by Thomas “Fats” Waller (music) with lyrics by Andy Razaf. Written in 1928 and introduced in the 1929 Off-Broadway revue Load of Coal at Connie’s Inn in Harlem, it went on to become one of Waller & Razaf’s most enduring collaborations. 

Waller’s own 1934 recording became definitive for many listeners and was later inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 1999, cementing the tune’s place in jazz history. 

Over the decades, Honeysuckle Rose has been interpreted by a who’s who of jazz and popular music — including Fletcher Henderson, Mildred Bailey, Count Basie, Louis Armstrong, Benny Goodman, Lena Horne, Nat King Cole, and Ella Fitzgerald — a testament to its adaptability across style, era, and groove.

🌀 Why Psychedelic Afrobeat Makes Perfect Sense for “Honeysuckle Rose”

1. Rooted in Rhythm and Groove
Psychedelic Afrobeat builds on layered African percussion, jazz influences, funk, highlife guitar, and horn sections – all carried by hypnotic polyrhythms. The genre, pioneered in 1960s–70s Nigeria by Fela Kuti, blends deep groove and danceable energy making it a natural fit to re-energize classic jazz standards like Honeysuckle Rose .

2. Spiritual, Hypnotic Transformation
Psychedelic Afrobeat (and Afro-rock/funk) often incorporates trance-inducing guitar fuzz, layered percussion, and swirling brass—tools known for transforming familiar melodies into expansive, emotionally charged journeys . Applying this to Honeysuckle Rose turns the sweet lyricism into an immersive, dancefloor-ready experience.

3. Psych & Afro Fusion: A Historical Tradition
In Lagos during the late ’60s and ’70s, local bands like Blo and Ghana’s Honny & the Bees were already blending Afrobeat with psychedelic rock, creating a vibrant genre hybrid that married cultural depth with free-spirited sonic experimentation.

4. From Harlem to Lagos—and Back
Fats Waller’s 1928 standard comes from the Harlem jazz tradition; by reimagining it with Afrobeat—a genre deeply rooted in Lagos’ musical and political landscape—you create a loop across continents. Jazz → Highlife → Afrobeat → Psychedelic funk: it’s a cultural conversation that honors origin and reinvents expression.

✅ In short:
Using psychedelic Afrobeat for Honeysuckle Rose is not just a remix—it’s a cultural and emotional expansion. The original’s lyrical sweetness becomes a communal, groove-laden celebration, amplified by talking drums, organ stabs, bass-driven fervor, and call‑and‑response vocals. It creates sweetness in motion, respectful of origins yet boldly improvising in a fresh, global format.
