Today's choice is a return for a TOTD Towers favourite but mob handed this time: The brilliant Angelique Kidjo returns as part of this supergroup LesAmazonesd'Afrique (named after an historic all female army regiment). Here'the lead from their new album:

We were so sorry to hear last month that Gambian lawmakers voted to advance a measure revoking a ban on female genital mutilation by removing legal protections for millions of girls, raising fears that other countries could follow suit. Our daughters do not deserve this trauma.

I've been doing some of that writing about music again. Like this bandcamp feature on LesAmazonesd'Afrique, whose disruptive, cross-generational new album 'Musow Danse' is essential listening

Les Amazones d’Afrique’s new album ‘Musow Danse’ is out now on Real World Records, and is available on all streaming platforms. Richly melodic and far-ranging, the album blends pan-African styles and collaborative harmonies with gritty, contemporary pop.

Reviewed the terrific 3rd record from LesAmazonesd'Afrique, which saw the supergroup hook up with Jacknife lee for an even further electronic-leaning sound. Still, it's the contrast in voices that stands out. Musow Danse out now via Real World Records. sinceileftyoublog.tumblr.com/post/742941299…
