I know Axum, Terrycarr and I derailed the other thread on African music so I created this thread in apology to anyone who might have wanted to contribute.

You can post music from your country, or any other african group, it can even be from the diasporan communities.

Judging is allowed but no racist comments are to be made

Go!!

One of my favourites.

I've been trying to post this song,

"Malaika" by Fadhili Williams...


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8silAxxDuDQ

LyricsVerse 1)

Malaika,
Nakupenda, Malaika;
Nami nifanyeje,
Kijana mwenzio,
Nashindwa, na mali sina wee,
Ningekuoa, malaika;

(Its a great classic)
