"I learned so much from KRS-One and Public Enemy, more than I did in schools. About African culture. Just learning, metaphysics, different things from hip hop records back in those days. You couldn’t be a dumb rapper, it was about being smart back in those days."

Book Rating
One of the first books I read as an Undergraduate at University and it did not grab me at first. Second and third readings however changed my mind towards rural African political systems.

I was also absolutely honoured to meet the late Professor Achebe before his death in 2013.

Track

"The title track on this release has been hammered in my DJ sets lately. Made as a football anthem for Mali’s team in the African Cup of Nations in 2002, this is an undeniable floor-filling, festival-slaying monster brought back for our enjoyment by reissue label Secousse."
