Show Notes

Laanguruusar aka Landcruiser:

Prof Ali Jimale Ahmed writes about the song Landcruiser and others in his book Daybreak is near. And he says:

Saado Ali, one of the most progressive and conscientious of Somalli singers, questions the rationale of those who drive Landcruisers in a land where children go to bed hungry every night, and where homes are dark for lack of electricity.
