WOW! Diggin' The Last Poets! Potently political. Along similar lines, check out Dana Murray / Negro Manifesto.

Does the single mean there is a new Amazon d’Afrique album? Sounds way more raw than the previous slick and oh so excellent LP.

Hope so, but it's released to promote a tour of Europe by the group so I'm not sure. Love the single, Mamani got something to work out!

The Amazones d'Afrique album was ultimately disappointing. Not because of the excellent singers, but the producers really cheaped out on the music. 99% of it was by this one French dude and was just horribly canned :(

And listen this thursday for a lot more Kasse Mady Diabate... Heartbroken over his death :(
