Contemporary African Music is not getting the credit it deserves (lemmy.world)

I am on a binge, listening to tons of Nigerian, Ugandan and Kenian music, and I am absolutely loving it. Why is this not playing on our (Western European) radio stations regularly?

Instead I have to regularly change stations because someone is trying to torture my ears with Ed Sheeran or similar BS. :(

Mdou Moctar has some of the best guitar riffs out there right now, IMO

I listened to his most recent album after my wife’s cousin mentioned that he had just seen Mdou Moctar live. I was blown away by that guitar. 10/10
