Toronto's African Scene
Toronto is Canada\u2019s most cosmopolitan city--\u201clike New York but mellower\u201d in the words of Kofi Akah, son of the Ghanaian highlife legend Jewel Akah. Kofi is one of many superb African artists who have made Toronto their home over the years. That list is long, and it has included highlife star Pat Thomas, South Sudanese rapper Emanuel Jal, rising Congolese star Blandine, Malagasy guitarist Donn\xe9 Roberts, and a hidden treasure of Ethiopian music, Fantahun Shewankochew. In this program, we take the pulse of Toronto\u2019s African scene through music and interviews with Kofi, Emanuel, Blandine, Fantahun and many more. \n\nProduced by Banning Eyre\nAPWW #830
