R&Cs: Madrina

Lately, French Rap has seen a large number of new voices: artists that have made their way to the top tiers through grassroots efforts and a relentless work rate. Let’s take Maes for instance. From the onset, he bulldozed his way up with countless mixtapes; today, he has a cosign from the Rap king himself Booba who also appears on the lead single, “Madrina”, to his debut album. I highlight the feat to argue that I don’t think there’s a better to start off this playlist. So, get ready as we set off and meander through Afropop, Electropop, Dancehall, Rap (from France, the UK, and the US), R&B, and SA House. As always, I invite you to enjoy the ride.

I wrote as kid. (I'd die if you'd ever get your hands on those poems.) And I wrote as a teen. (We thought our raps would spearhead revolution.) I write these days to share my joys and perspectives. I am as subjective as they come. I found a bunch of blessed souls that are just as expressive. And Africa is all the better for it. (I think I never really changed.)
