DJ Sessions: Tribal Beats From Across Africa

When Georges Collinet thinks about the term "tribal beats," he pictures his childhood village in Cameroon, back when his grandfather would use a talking drum to communicate with neighboring Pygmy peoples.

On this week's Here & Now DJ Sessions, host Jeremy Hobson speaks with Collinet, DJ and host of the syndicated radio series Afropop Worldwide, about some of the diverse rhythms across Africa.
