"Diverse African rhythms with great singing emotional appeal."
3 out of 5
Exiled in the US when escaping from the apartheid, Makeba stepped into the best Jazz scene a musician could ever want: New York. She bravely opened space for Calypso, Indonesian and Afro-pop. Great African song writer and musician, not my favourite style but again, this isn't the blog for personal selection, it is about diversity and for that reason, Makeba is an excellent choice for getting in touch with that rich and romantic African rhythm.
