Masai National Reserve and Mr JuaCali...Good combo!

2009-06-09T22:16:00.000-07:00

So I have been imaginary globe trotting, visualizing my 100 top spots to visit in all over Africa before I turned 60, and Masai National Reserve in southwestern Kenya on the border of Tanzania came into mind, this premiere wild life park is the reason why many visitors go to Kenya.
Lions abound throughout the park as do leopards, cheetah, hyenas, giraffe, impala, wildebeest, topi, baboons, warthogs, buffalo, zebra, elephants, and of course hippos and crocodiles in the Mara River. The best time to go is between July and October when the wildebeest and zebra are at their highest number and offer plenty of food for lions, cheetahs, and leopards. Within the reserve, it's not unusual to see 5 or 6 safari vehicles full of tourists taking photos of one lion with its kill.

Now this is the type of place that I need to invest my time in, would do me good, real good. While doing my usual snooping around for the local talents on the net, I came upon JuaCali, with his totally nice track Biddi Yangu.

Now for some Hottt Black Coffee...

Proudly South African and very well known for his smashing remixes, Black Coffee takes one on a cosmic musical journey, I can get my daily dose of black Coffee any time of the day. His craftsmanship when it comes to music is simply fantastic, he creates masterpiece after masterpiece, brother gives the airwaves no peace...

For the love of African sounds, 9ice, winner of the 2008 MOBO Awards-Best African Act and MTV African Music Awards-Best Hip Hop is a master of his tunes. This Nigerian born artist, known for his use of using Yoruba language in his music is a true genius when it comes to music, most times I get speechless when I come across such talent..
