"T.I.A." (by K'naan)
This is something new but also old.
K'naan has been just added to my favorite playlist. The album "Troubadour" is a mix of HipHop, Reggae, Rock and genuine African music. The songs remind me of those of Black Eyed Peas and of "classic" Fugees. But, the music also has a sense of traditional African music, a spice of Arabic and a smell of dust. His backgrounds draw my attention as well. Born in Mogadishu, Somalia, he spent his childhood during the civil war, and fled the country to seek asylum in North America.
Yes, This Is Africa!! T.I.A.!!
By the way, African Festa 2009 will be held in Yokohama again on May 16 and 17.
This weekend's African Festival in Yokohama is a bit different in its programs and sponsors...

"봄이여 오라" (by MC Sniper)
キタ━━━━━━━━━━━━(゜∀゜)━━━━━━━━━━━━ッ!!!!
Spring has come to Tokyo.
Beautiful, snow-white cherry blossoms are in blooms here and there. Chidorigafuchi (千鳥ヶ淵), the north-western moat of the Imperial Palace is one of the most magnificent viewing spot in Tokyo.
By the way, "봄이여 오라" (Come unto Spring) was originally written by Yumi Matsutoya (松任谷由実), a Japanese pop queen, and later arranged by MC Sniper, a Korean HipHop musician.
