Sample Set #160



This set is my gift to Combat Jack (and Dallas Penn - even if he doesn't want it). What we've got here is a small sampling of music from Africa, handpicked by Jr. Gong & Crew. As Damian Marley explained in an interview, one of the driving forces behind this collaborative record with soul brother Nas was an attempt to introduce authentic African music to a new crowd here in the States and abroad. Hopefully this compilation will further that worthy cause. Turn it up!!
