Because no-one is talking about it enough on the Rolling Outernational thread. And everyone should hear it. This is the best thing I've heard so far this year. Afro-Cuban magic.

i wish i had more to say about it than that i think it's fantastic and i love the "n'ga digne m'be" track. the whole collection has a great warm summer vibe. here's a link to the bandcamp page where u can listen to the whole thing:

We need to find the guy. He hasn't been seen since 1980 in the Cameroon.
