The 25 year musician many blessings to you... because if you feel the need to post such nonsense about the complexity or simplicity of African music you have wasted 25 years of training! 2 things : would you question the African Miles Davis for belting out one note for for 4 bars or the African John Coltrane for screaming through scales without apparent regard for how complex or simple it may sound to listeners? Mr.Indian research the origins of Tabla, and change your MIND

You made the attack, so the onus is on you. You put up or shut up: Challange Mamady, or a Guinea Djembe expert of his calliber/lineage, and post the results here. You make an attack, back it up.

@shango1963

You nor anyone else has any right to demand anything involved herein, nor do have the expertise to know even where to begin to ask questions about the tradition until you have apprenticed in it and have a firm foundation from which to ask a question.

If you have the answers to your "questions," and find it beneath you, why do you stay? Again, illogical.

@KillinDaWelfareMCs

Precisely my point (your "rudimentary comment"). No African involved with any African tradition cares what you or the other fool thinks. If you are really concerned, speak your mind freely to Mamady. These traditions exist on their own merit without the need to be validated by you or anyone else.

[KillinDaWelfareMCs]

@shango1963 I don't think anything that person had to say was in contempt.

If you follow their thread they asked about more diverse African time signatures...

and as of right now nobody has been able to provide them with a west afrcan rythem that is more complex than 3/4 or 4/.4 ..

so put up or shut up and realize that your tradition is rudimentary.
