i aint got no time for that

sum it up for me or at least time frame the best parts

they have all types of their own folk music
the tuareg make pretty rad psych folk rock
west africa has produced afrobeat
there are some cool modern electronic scenes like kuduro and shangaan electro

lol, not all of it, but they're the forthfathers of jazz which that influenced rock n roll which influenced everything you've ever listened to excluding classical music.

I have an album of Ethiopian and Moroccan pop rock from the 70s that's pretty sweet. Thai shadow music and Iraqi pop is better, but still pretty cool.

Some Malian garage rock I've heard is also neat, if pretty expected. I think Africa's best hope is to ignore genres pioneered by African immigrants (a la blues, house, rap) and just explore the music culture of other realms.

I'm desperately waiting for the Liberian prog rock album that reconnects jazz to Africa while incorporating American hillbilly music. Like an inside out rock and roll.

Check out the Congotronics series. Kinshasan street bands from the Congo distorted metal thumb pianos and it sounds awesome, not unlike how the Brits and Americans distorted guitars in the 60s. I see somebody already posted Mbongwana Star. good shit.

Jazz didn't come from Africa you retard
Black people don't have "rhythm"
neither does anyone inherently
But continue to worship the BBC whatev

Egypt has some good music, if you're into the Arabian-style music. And can understand Arabic.

>>70010877
were did it come from then? Pennsylvania?

>>70008662
Northern Africa has a great culture of Arabic music, like

Yalla yalla kill the infidels
yalla yalla my balls are bursting
bring the children
yalla yalla

stop pretending to be black dude, its really sad.

>>70013521
yes,the african swallow did

Short Answer: Yes

Not much is worth listening to, heard an album by some cucked hollywood kike that he put out of these people who are living in an African prison who were making music.
It sounded okay, but it lacked counterpoint like most anything in music that was heavily influenced by slave songs so it sounds very foreign to me.
Most of the songs were laments about how shit they were as people or how shit Africa is. The idea is there, but they didn't take it that extra step and make it poetry.

Tinariwen is entry-level plebcore.
But more seriously, I don't associate Desert Blues (basically Saharian Music by Tuaregs) with Mali, that I picture like a urban country, not a sand-filled area like northern countries (ie.Algeria, Marocco, etc.). Maybe I'm in the wrong tho.

Bombino is pretty based
He's probably amongst the top ten guitarist right now.

I laughed.

You may be right though on association though, only a handful of groups have come from there that you could categorize as that. Probably not even worth the effort thinking about it considering how diverse the discographies are.

Most of it isn't recorded, anon. There is a lot of great African music. I kind of hate RYM but at least their genres are organized well. Click on any subset of "African Music", such as "West African Music" and another subset from there and click on "see all" for the top releases.
