RecommendDiallo manages to blur the boundaries in world/african music. This Canadian (re-located from Guinea) blends African, Brazilian, Cuban, and reggae to come off sounding fresh. This has to be one of the most inspiring African releases that I have ever heard. He recently won a Juno for best world album giving him a well deserved push into the spotlight.
