In the late 80ies, early nineties i followed the west African music scene a bit. Favorites were Youssou N'Dour, Baaba Maal, Franco (the Congolese musician, not the Spanish dictator) and Fela Kuti.
Lately I've been replaying some of those albums and enjoying most of it. But what are the relevant current musicians today that keep the artistic flame alive of the artists mentioned? I sometimes hear African music heavily influenced by western hiphop. Not interested in that.
Recommendations please.
