there's nothing sloppy at all here. This how this 6/8 is inflected. It takes a lot of listening for Western ears to feel at home in it. (Especially if they think the Africans are doing it "wrong" to start with.) Most Westerners never get it. Malian music does taste different to Guinean.

hey is this soli

[michaelpluznick]

They call it Suku there in Mali, but if you study Guinee it sounds very similar...

Spiritual, check out me playing, Africans have to show their spiritual form is a natural beat in itself, its more to this thing than just panning the hand on the drumss ass dude!

[crazygnomes]

I don't mean to be a critic, but it sounds kind of sloppy

[megasuchy]

@crazygnomes What's slooppy here mate?? this is traditional playing with incredible groove and fantastic sounds.Relax and listen to it with your all body.If you don't understand it i can't say anything else.

[outer432]

I think the rythym is either Mendiani or Dununba. But O MY GOD!!!! That is the craziest manipulation of a 6/8 ryhthym i have ever seen!

[RachelWin]

Is this a traditional rhythm? If so, which?

Great video!

[Samakoro]

it's traditional...soli or suku...depending on where you are and who you ask.
