Africa Raps

A compilation of hip hop mostly from Senegal, with some MC's from Gambia and Mali. The rhyming is mostly in French with a few tracks in Wolof. The idea here is to give a snapshot of what hip hop is like in Dakar, thankfully not an attempt to cross over in Europe or the US. Many of the tracks have a very strident African groove, with minimal breaks and pounding beats learned from old-to-mid school hip hop. 16 tracks including "Africa Child" by Abass Abass, "Kay Jel Ma" by Bibson/Xuman, "CBV" by Art 158, "Omzo" by Kunu Abal Ay Beut, Ojoloff" by Metite, "Tata Pound" by Badala, "Positively Black Soul" by Boul Ma Mine" and more. *
More reviews: shorter one and longer one.
