Today's Highlight: Time to hit the dance floor (and earn some frequent flier miles as well) to enjoy some of Afropop Worldwide's favorite recordings of Latin stars: Colombia's Joe Arroyo in London, Paulina Tamayo in Ecuador, Los Van Van in Havana, Los Munequitos de Matanzas in New York. The finale is salsa pioneer Willie Colon playing for his hometown crowd
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.
