Rolling Stone's 388th greatest album of all time (497th in the 2020 list)
A fairly listenable collection of African folk music. Not my cup of tea but easy to listen to.

Movie Rating
A political thriller surrounding an assassination attempt on an African dictator visiting the UN in New York. It can be a bit hard to follow and not a lot of action in it.
