― forks is lucky he didn't get stabbed over a marilyn monroe cd (forksclovetofu), Monday, 25 February 2013 01:43 (eleven years ago) link

I sent some Jero videos to someone from Palau I worked with for a little while. She was impressed with his voice and showed them to her uncle who is an enka fan, and he was very impressed. (Apparently enka and other older Japanese music forms are popular with some segments of Palau, probably partly thanks to Japan's former colonial presence there. She said her grandparents were really into older Japanese music.)

The singer starting at 3:00 is the Senegalese singer Aby Ngana Diop who was highlighted in this awesometapesfromafrica offering. Found this quote online:

Diop was born in the Dakar region and was the area's most famous tassukat (tassu being a form of sung Wolof rhythmic verse that is often used to impart traditional values to children). . . . She performed in Europe a few times and appeared on stage with Doudou N'Diaye Rose. Most of her performances though were at baptisms and weddings in and around Dakar. I spoke with Mbaye Gueye, who produced the cassette, and he knew nothing about her. I've also spoken to several music journalists in Dakar. . . nothing. I'll keep you posted." Matt also reports that he's heard that Aby Ngana Diop passed away in the late '90s, between '96 and '98, although he can't confirm this.

When you were making the thread title, did you consider "stuff forks likes"
