You don't know bubu music

Can't wait for people to start jocking the bubu music tip (lord knows I am right now), and for everybody to realize that Janka Nabay is their new Jesus. 

For those who haven't had the pleasure of trying to make these percussive double-timed sounds by blowing through carborator pipes on their own, Janka's on top of it, repping a Sierra Leone tradition that he revived himself in the 90s during that country's civil turmoil and violence.

Watch this video for "Eh Congo" (off the upcoming Bubu King album out on True Panther/Matador March 9), and please feel free to send me an e-mail if you seriously think you can party like Janka.
