Afromusicology by Kyraocity

Thx to TED friend Cooper Bates (Los Angeles Idea Project) for reminding the Loch Ness Blogster to appear. Check out Wayne&Wax on Modern Ancient African Music (a must follow blog). Wayne Marshall includes this great dancehall video by Senegalese world musician Baaba Maal in a review of Ingrid Monson’s article on theories of globalization (1999).  Love the video narrative teaching kids abt African music inna Jamaican context w. traditional Senegalese singing & dancehall beats. Reminds me how black folks in NYC learn Senegalese dance. From free classes all over the city. Esther. Nafisa. and more. Donations accepted. This is an informal sector of ethnomusicological training that beats Columbia or NYU.
