Ever wonder how to crack into so-called "World Music?" I have a hard time doing it because there are so many artists from so many countries, singing in so many languages. Some of it I just don't care for, and most of it I don't understand, but there is one artist I discovered many years ago, who just gets better and better: Youssou N'Dour from Senegal.
His newest album is just great! But also check out this album, which was the first of his that I bought. The track "Live Television" from this album is stunning, with him singing mostly in English.
Oh, and finally, check out this awesome video featuring Youssou and Neneh Cherry.
