Last week the first episode of Africa is a Country Radio, with your host Chief Boima, went live! This marks the beginning of an official three-way partnership between Groovalizacion, Dutty Artz, and Africa is a Country. The first episode was kind of a general introduction to some of the themes and ideas I’ll be focusing on with the show – pan-Atlantic and Afro diasporic.

This is also the first of two new Dutty Artz radio shows premiering this Spring. Keep an eye out for more news about the second one. In the meantime, stream the first show on the Groovalizacion website, or download it here and check out the tracklisting below:
