Independence Day in Guinea

Since we're back to our Independence Day meme, yesterday was Guinea-Conakry's day. (Yes, Sean's fault again.)

Looking south from where I live, it's tempting to think of, say, DJ Oudy as being the big star. But that's because Paris lies somewhere in between here and Guinea. And the Guinean diaspora does a good job at clouding the French perception. Europe offers them all the right studios, the marketeers and the bling. And the resulting videos are quite something. (You must have seen 'Tchoumakay' by now). In Guinea though, they're listening to Tiranké Sidimé:

Les Jumeaux:

And Momo:

I'm going for the Guinean sounds. Here's to a fair election later this year.
