"In Africa, the fortunes are reversed. Often, the machine is the reason for torment in Africa. The reason for music is for inspiration and for rising up."

"The latest case in point is the Refugee All Stars, from Sierra Leone, a six-piece of ragtag but seemingly enlightened Afropop stars who grew momentum in western Africa last year"

The Refugee portion comes from the 100-mile journey they made to the Sembakounya Refugee Camp in Guinea where they subsisted on shared chicken feed and dirty water, although refuge is more apropos to the music they sought escape with while rebels in Freetown pillaged their village and killed their kin and, most notably, their spirits.
