Africa 100: Joe Tangari (2005)

Lists by single critics or musicians, published in magazines or on websites, have lower priority. The amount of such lists would be impossible to handle.
(However, priority is given to single author lists from books, very famous music critics and artists with albums or songs ranked on Acclaimed Music. Single author lists are also more likely to get priority if they are not limited to a genre or artist.)

Africa 100: Joe Tangari (2005)

Post by panam »

At first sight uneligible, but it's one list with history..and one of the most influential in the study of afrobeats.

It became a pirate compilation by internet music nerds and it is an important source in book till today

No opinions about this? I think it's a list with enough landmarks to be considered eligible.

Genre list by a single critic, published online. That makes it ineligible, even if there's a pirate compilation and it's been referenced to by others.
Everyone you meet fights a battle you know nothing about. Be kind. Always.
