I was doing my regular rounds on the blogs today, when I was pleasantly surprised to discover that okayplayer have a new site dedicated entirely to African music & culture! Check it out > okayafrica.
This is great news considering there really is a lack of good quality websites/blogs that focus on African music, yet we all know how much amazing talent the motherland has to offer! Okayplayer generally has good writers + content so I'm looking forward to seeing what the new site brings to the table.
I've posted two dope tracks after the jump that caught my ear while I was exploring their site. Listen/download below...
Timi Da Blackone - Where You Dey
Nigerian born Timi Da Blackone (Originally a member of hip hop group Da Trybe) took some time off to finish his dentistry degree but he shows no signs of rustiness with this new single. Dopeness!
Goapele + Hip Hop Pantsula - Victory
