This is the eighth feature in a series we call “Fresh Cuts.” It’s a selection of newly released tracks and videos from across Africa and the diaspora, featuring established and up-and-coming artists and everything in between. It’s been a bit of a wait since volume seven, so we’re including some tracks that were released several months ago but still retain their freshness. Today we’ve got, among other things, unbridled Ghanaian dance beats, fierce Brazilian hip-hop, Sudan-inspired electronic violin experiments, colorful Colombian dance fun, suave Afrobeats and soulful grooves from London and Dublin. In case you missed them, also check out our previous “Fresh Cuts.”
Here’s the full playlists of this music (be mindful that these won’t include every song listed here due to the variety of platforms artists are using to share their music). Scroll beyond to read about the artists and watch the great music videos. Enjoy!
J Hus, “Common Sense”
