Vrai

13 Recordz présente Vrai 2 Vrai (1-2ground Prophecy)

This is a hip-hop compilation from Burkina Faso. Looks like a label mixtape. It contains many bangers. The implications of a tape like this to someone who likes rap are mind-boggling. How many Americans even know where Burkina Faso is?? And these kids are rapping in French, English and local languages like this? And this is from back in 2004? Imagine what their shit sounds like now. Maybe globalization ain’t all that bad….
