The Motherland Influence presents:

In today’s first hour I’ll feature music from Cuba, the ultimate in “African, Latin & Caribbean sounds”.

Then more, with African music in the second hour, including a stunning collaboration of two great musicians of Mali, the late Toumani Diabate and the late Mangala Camara.

Happy Mother’s Day!

To celebrate our mothers, we have all music by women from all over the diaspora.

Every song is from a different country because we all have mothers!
