Program January 14, 2011

I generally like my reggae music conscious-style, with deep rhythms and heavy lyrics.  But there are plenty of great reggae novelty songs as well, and I'll play you a new one (pictured above; it's really dancehall if you want to be precise) that has had me chuckling all week.  And I'll surround it with some of those more serious tracks that I usually play ...

Also this week: some rock en espanol from all over the Spanish-speaking world; the Garifuna-Senegal connection; and smoking-hot African dance music that draws its inspiration from Congolese soukous.
