Review:
Kasumai play pop songs interspersed with lyrics in Wolof, Mandinka and Jola with instrumental performances that delve deep into traditional sources, including several percussion-only tracks. The album provides some new perspective on the music of a country that is increasingly identified with M'balax and other modern, guitar-based pop styles. — CalabashMusic.com |
