Lately I've been digging on the African music show that plays on WSHA 88.9 on the weekends. I'd like to listen to more of it, but I don't know who any of the artist are. Help me out and post good African music here.

I like the upbeat stuff that has a reggae feel as well as the traditional/A Capella/harmonies/Lion King-esq sound. I'll get it started off with...

Try lady smith black mambazo. They are a band that out of south africa that specialized in gumboot music. Won the national award for best band year after year. Also, try K'naan. He lives in canada now but is from Somalia and most of his lyrics have to do with the continent. Follow any of the suggestions from youtubes of those and you wont go far wrong. If you have netflix there is a pretty neat documentary on Fela on there.
