Formed in the early 1970s by saxophonist James “Plunky” Branch in Richmond, Virginia, Oneness of Juju became a cornerstone of the Black Fire Records collective, blending spiritual jazz, Afrobeat, funk, and soul into a distinctly uplifting sound. Rooted in African rhythms and community consciousness, the group’s music champions unity, resilience, and cultural pride. Best known for tracks like “African Rhythms,” Oneness of Juju has influenced generations of artists and continues to inspire with its timeless fusion of groove-driven improvisation and message-driven artistry.
