We'll open up with a powerful track from Rasheed Ali's new album, 1968: The Other Side of Town, and dig deep into Kaleta & Super Yamba Band's smoking debut album, Medaho, for the irresistible Afrobeat groove of "Mr. Diva." We'll hear fantastic new jazz fusion by Neue Grafik Ensemble featuring Nubya Garcia, and a track by newly appointed Polaris artist in residence Tanika Charles.
