Playlist for June 20,2013

On this edition of Africamix I featured a retrospective of African pop music. The eighties and nineties were a fertile time for African music. With the advent of new recording technology African artists seized the opportunity to create their own brand of pop music which became known as Afro-pop. The following titles are samples of the era. I also featured Afro beat music.

Fela, the creator of this African music style once said “Music is the weapon for the future” he definitely used his music for social justice for the common people. He denounced the Nigeria government at different period of time for the rampant corruption and human right violations. Since he died, a score of musicians from Africa and from around the world have followed his footsteps to keep afro beat alive.
