<3 Wasis Diop and Sénégal!! I wouldn't really say this is a car enthusiast video though; he's talking about having no more room in the cities and running around on foot instead. I'm surprised he didn't have any clips of the trucks with scores of people lining the bed edges on the way to Touba - that would have been totally appropriate for this.
@Leeeeena the Jalopchick: Not even much, just pepperjack cheese and proper amounts of salt, pepper, and--of course--Tony Chachere's. On top of that, though, the... what's the opposite of coup de grâce? The real kicker was this "herb marinara" sauce powder that was left over from an instant pasta thing that... someone in this apartment may have exploded last night...
@Van Sarockin, rogue trebuchet: For Congolese my favorite is older Lingala such as music by Pepe Kalle, Franco et Le TPOK Jazz, Zaiko Langa Langa, Tabu Ley, Mbilia Belle, Tshala Muana, etc.
For newer stuff check out BET Jazz's Africa Hour on saturday at noon EST I think.
@cchannel: Some, don't know it well at all. There are some radio stations around that have african focused programs and I listen to them every now and then. Must. Reprioritize. Life...

I saw Amadou et Miriam a few years ago, from Mali, and they rocked. Just about danced the soles off my shoes.

What a refreshing way to start the morning after you slept twelve hours after you stayed up for thirty eight!
