Karamoko Keita – “Fouroui Kadi Ni Kanouye”

April 29, 2006
90s, West Africa

 

This music is from Mali, I believe. It’s sublime in its simplicity.

I bought this tape in a neighborhood in Accra, Ghana. Known for its high concentration of people from other West African countries, Nima is one of the busiest, and toughest, places in town.

Several tape shops lie along the main road that bisects this enormous slum. The shop where I found this Karamoko Keita recording has tapes you can’t find anywhere else in the city, tapes from Nigeria, Mali, Ivory Coast…that shop is chill.
