DJ Set from MUSE 12/3/17 Most of this music comes out of Peru and Nigeria. What may sound like Caribbean Patwa is actually Nigerian pidgin, which is very similar thanks to the slave trade and cross pollination. And the dancehall vibes are straight from west Africa, not Jamaica. Nigerian music scene is hot AF. Most of the cumbia has native Andean singers singing in Quechua, the ancient Incan language spoken through all the Andes before Spain banned it, it is still spoken by 10 million people in rural Bolivia, Ecuador, and Peru.
Give this music your attention. Put it on when you can appreciate it, when you really wana trance out and dance.
