TINARIWEN SPEAK OF TURMOIL

Tinariwen have a new single out called ‘Amidinim Ehaf Solan’ and it is a timely piece about the turmoil of the political situation in the world right now.

Touhami Ag Alhassane says the track “speaks of patience and unity amid political turmoil, a reminder that even a thirsty land can turn green again.”

The lyrics say, when translated to English, say: “Its lyrics translate to, “”My friend, I beg of you, go gently. We still have a country, albeit thirsty and in pain, but it will turn green again and grow new branches. There will be shade again, and beneath it we’ll take our rest. An old woman and a boy came by here to implore you to come together and unite, all of you, without exception.”

Get on this.
