African music

Viviane N'dour - Kumu neexul (clip OFFICIEL) - YouTube

I came in here to hate (im half congolese btw) because i hate african music always had to hear that rubbish shyt with the same damn guitar sound in every track growing up, and my mom was engaged to a famous singer, but this track right here was real nice. them drums were crisp. and she's beautiful.

the only african music I listen too, are the new age stuff like Kwaito from South Africa. Its electronic music from africa

[ame]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eiePCdr1C6g[/ame]
