Habib Koité - Namania

Habib Koité and Bamada - "Namania"
From the album Afriki (2007)

"Namania" is based on a style called dansa from Keyes, the city where Habib´s family originates.
Habib sings of a dark-skinned girl from the country.
Her beauty leads him to dream of things he has loved and lost,
such as the trees from across the river where Habib used to play as a child that have now been cut down to build houses.

@naturalnchic1 Most of Africa is not colonized anymore...it's not that they forbid black making music..and they did not took all of Africa ,most of it was free land.

@bendemultidis that is how music should be

[aheneghana]

one should not forget how much struggle it is before an African artist reaches to the top. Deprivations, disappointments, sufferings are common in their lives.  .. @aheneghana - africasiaeurodotcom

Not funny "MrJuggy2009". You must have some interest or you would not be listening. Open your very closed tight mind.
