“I did not like that name "world music" in the beginning. I think that African music must get more respect than to be put in a ghetto like that. We have something to give to others. When you look to how African music is built, when you understand this kind of music, you can understand that a lot of all this modern music that you are hearing in the world has similarities to African music. It's like the origin of a lot of kinds of music.” ThinkingWorldGivingLooksKindNamesModernMusic IsBuiltHearingSimilarityGhettoWorld MusicModern MusicAfrican Music Author:Baaba Maal
