The Rough Guide to African Rap (2004)
A musical revelation awaits listeners as they delve into The Rough Guide To African Rap, displaying \nthe kind of grooves that are rocking twenty-first century urban Africa and the Diaspora. In Africa, \nwordplay has always been a great source of entertainment and social commentary, and rappers have \nresponded to social and political issues by addressing such subjects as poverty, AIDS, famine, \ncorruption and globalization at a time when the changing economic, political and media climate across \nAfrica has resulted in less censorship and more freedom to be critical of people in power. Not all these \ntracks are strictly hip-hop but the rap element is ever-present. Some of the tracks are by \nworld-renowned stars, while others have never been heard in the West. Rappers move easily across \ncultural divides; their community is a more global one and all these artists can hold their own whether \noutside Africa or within. YEAR: 2004
This reggae cd contains 14 tracks and runs 66min 2sec.
