Clash Of The Hip Hop Civilization,
By
This review is from: Rough Guide to African Rap (Audio CD)
I know Samuel P. Huntington said there would be more and more interaction between "The West" and Developing Nations, but who would have thought that would spill over to Hip Hop?
Each song has it's unique blend of traditional rhythms mixed w/ rhymes you may not even understand. Nontheless, one can not deny the potential these artist display, from South Africa's popular Kwaito sound, to Tanzania own X-Plastaz who have held true to Masai culture over a fly beat. And who can front on Ghana's own, Reggie Rockstone, the God Father of HipLife?! The only thing missing from this classic Cd is a dedication to the great Fela Kuti. All in all, this CD is for the open minded.

This review is from: Rough Guide to African Rap (Audio CD)
There is a variety of sounds - different styles of rapping mixed with different local/tradtional sounds. Several of the artists have socially concious messages, e.g. critique of corrupt institutions.
