Afropop Cover Songs
In today\u2019s pop music, everybody is a composer. But what about the classics? The songs that last? In this program we survey African musicians reinterpreting each other\u2019s songs, as well as songs from far outside their traditions. And we hear foreign takes on African diaspora music. From Louis Armstrong\u2019s \u201cSkokiaan\u201d to Alpha Blondy\u2019s \u201cWhole Lotta Love,\u201d it\u2019s a journey of discovery and rediscovery. Produced by Banning Eyre.\n\nAPWW #854
