Mali v Ghana Soundclash

Ahead of Ghana's vital World/African Nations Cup qualifying game in Bamako (tomorrow @ 7pm GMT), our soundclash showcases music from each of the West African nations. Mali is renowned for its music and artists such as Ali Farka Toure and Salif Keita have achieved global acclaim. Amadou & Mariam are the latest sensation to come out of Mali and we love their music. Against Amadou & Mariam we have put 2 giants of the Ghanaian music scene - Reggie Rockstone and Tic Tac. Rockstone is credited as being the 'godfather' of hiplife which is Ghana's interpretation of hip hop. We hope you enjoy, comment to let us know which you think is best.
