On African Music

So I've been into African hip-hop lately, which I touched on briefly in my recent post on K'NAAN, but a recent YouTube search turned up some great results. I tend to like the artists that employ African-sounding instrumentation and melodies, and my favorite videos show Here are a few of the videos I most enjoyed.

• Justice by Muki Garang and Mwafrika
• Constantly by Kalamashaka
• Sou Mey Rap by Dakar All-Stars
• Mother Africa by Hip Hop All-Stars

I can't vouch for lyrical content or quality, since I don't speak Swahili or French or whatever language these cats are rapping in.
