Bassekou Kouyaté

He's probably the single-greatest instrumentalist I've ever seen in my life. I think you'll all get to know him eventually...

Mali has one of the strongest musical cultures in the world - multiple strands of independent styles of music that coexist, but are aware of the others. so much going on in that country right now. if y'all don't know about the Festival au Désert, check it out

Too many for me to go into, since I have more gaps than knowledge. Two big ones from Nigeria are Afrobeat, which Fela is the chief exponent, and Highlife, which King Sunny Ade is probably the biggest name:

some of my favourite music from africa comes from Mali, with Bassekou Kouyate being my absolute favourite virtuoso musician of the ngoni:
