This Is Africa, a compilation album featuring various African artists, is a celebration of the diverse and vibrant music scene on the continent. The album showcases a range of genres, from Afrobeat to Highlife, and features both established and up-and-coming artists.
One of the standout tracks on the album is "Jerusalema" by South African DJ and producer Master KG, featuring vocalist Nomcebo Zikode. The infectious beat and catchy chorus have made this song a global hit, and it's easy to see why. Other highlights include "African Queen" by Nigerian singer 2face Idibia, which is a smooth and soulful love song, and "Ojuelegba" by WizKid, which combines Afrobeats with elements of R&B and pop.
Throughout the album, there is a strong sense of pride and celebration of African culture and identity. This is particularly evident in tracks like "Africano" by Ghanaian artist Castro, which features lyrics in both English and Twi, and "Africa" by Kenyan group Sauti Sol, which is a rousing anthem about the beauty and resilience of the continent.
