Note to Billboard: I think it's time you actually recognise the African music. Music has a wide range and spectrum and it's ability to be a voice and tool for message should be appreciated. This is the 21st century, when you give a stage where musicians from the "world" and not just a specific continent are encouraged and appreciated for their efforts and creativity, it feels right. With all the issues going on in the world today and even in the US, I feel it will be very good to see that in music( which in My opinion is one of the core interest of modern society) we are united... Thanks...
