Podcast: Radio Mukambo #516 – Top 21 of 2021

It’s the first week of the year so time to treat you to the best albums of 2021. A global trip that will take you from Colombian Pacific tot a refugee camp in the desert, from adrenaline fuelled jazz to the Beastie Boys making cumbia in the Congo.

Ethiogrooves, Latin afrobeat, dubsounds, breakbeats, electric gnawa and Brazilian hip-hop. Here are the 21 best albums of 2021!

We also pay tribute to the one and only Mr. OK, afrobeat legend Oghene Kologbo. Rest in power!
