Earlier this month, Azla and Nesanet got together with Ras G for the first installment of their Azla Sounds mixtape series, featuring new music to highlight the tradition, culture and diaspora of Ethiopia.
Over the weekend, Azla Vegan was featured on the Food Network's Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Putting Guy Fieri and Ras G together in the same sentence is something we never thought we'd do, so the power of Azla restaurant is something to be reckoned with. Enjoy the mixtape, you can stream it below...
