World Music: X-Plastaz, "Nini Dhambi"
(Tanzania) Here's another from the Tanzanian Rap group that combines Maasai chant with Hip Hop. The video was shot on the active volcano Ol Doinyo Lengai (the Mountain of God to the Maasai people) and in the slums of Arusha. A few days after this moving plea on behalf of the poor and disabled of Tanzania was filmed, eldest member Nelly (who wrote the lyric) was stabbed to death by an unstable and violent neighbor. In the same week that Nelly died, the volcano had its first eruption in years. The band continues.
