Today's Highlight: Afropop Vignettes: East Africa
Afropop's vivid musical portraits of Tanzania, Zanzibar, and Kenya: we drop in on Ottu Jazz's rehearsal in Dar es Salaam; talk with Tanzanian roots-pop sensation Saida Karoli; enjoy the ingenious contemporary hip hop of Kenya's Gidi Gidi Maji Maji, and much more.
A one-hour weekly showcase of music and information from Africa, the Caribbean, and the Americas. Hosted by Georges Collinet from Cameroon, Afropop Worldwide draws on an unprecedented array of reporters, artists, and cultural guides to present an hour that is authoritative, comprehensive, and hugely entertaining.
Afropop Worldwide blends a rich array of global music with lively interviews and insightful stories on world-class talents and the music they create. Each carefully crafted broadcast features live concert tape, exclusive interviews, visits to musicians' houses, urban ambiance from around the African Diaspora, and rare recordings.
