on spotify, checking out some of the Rock-a-Rolla list I hadn't heard...
was pretty floored by the sheer hyperactive weirdness and crinkly fuzziness of the omar album, until I realised that a spotify glitch meant it was playing at about three times the correct speed. listening at the 'proper' speed now. I wish I could accelerate it again.

Given that Norway is pretty ethnically homogeneous and has kept alive its folk traditions, maybe the music that ended up on that list resonates more with their cultural background than most African-American music. I wonder how much indie rock would turn up on EOY lists out of Africa?

Before we start getting into Scandanavian race politics, the Reverend's comment was a JOKE, ie the Norwegian poll features Rihanna, Jay-Z, Drake and 50 Cent whereas the others throw the occasional bone to Mos Def or Raekwon.
