Weekend Music Break No.73
Here’s our selection of tunes for the weekend of May 9th, 2015
It’s mother’s day weekend in much (but not all) of the world… so let’s start out with Vusi Mahlasela’s “Thula Mama”.
Burna Boy turns in a really cool video for “Soke”.
Brooklyn artist Teleseen shoots a video on the coast of Brazil, documenting the lives of fishermen on Ilhabela for “Outlines”.
Sahel Sounds has a new Balani show album out. Here is “Danbe” from Supreme Talent Show, read up on them on the Sahel Sounds blog.
Stones Throw artist Knxwledge goes “In the Dungeon” for a live performance of some of his beats.
This week Meklit Hadero realeased a clip for “Kemekem” dedicated to your beautiful afro.
Ismael & the Radiant Select is playing around New York these days. Here is their song “Sa Diatale”.
I can’t wait for the clip for Young Fathers’ crazy good neo-rap tune ‘Old Rock N Roll’, so here’s the song in a youtube stream… This one might get a double posting on the Weekend Music Break if the video ever comes out.
“Canto da lavadeira, Prelúdio das águas” from As Ganhadeiras de Itapuã sounds like it’s coming from an island in the middle of the Atlantic equidistant between Cabo Verde and Brazil.

Not a new track, but a big one that we haven’t put up yet. Here’s Kiss Daniel’s Woju Remix feat. Tiwa Savage and Davido
Happy Mother’s day and have a great weekend!
