(Austrailia) Miracle - Better Dayz
(South Africa) Teargas - Go Away
You don't need to understand the words to understand the feelings behind this record -- and this beat knocks! Here's another one of my favorite records from South Africa. This group just got a BET Award nomination in the international artist category. The record has been out for a while, but it's still a good one.

(Nigeria) Banky W - Strong Ting
I must have played this song 100 times when I first heard it in South Africa. The Nigerian artist Banky W has created a strong movement on the continent, particularly in cities like Lagos and Abuja where the parties rarely end before dawn. True R&B lovers can definitely appreciate this song and story from Mr. Wellington.

Music Matters presents R'Voices (Rotterdam, Holland)
Here's a great series of events going on in Rotterdam through the end of the year. If you make it to Holland, you've got to check out at least one of them. Being fortunate enough to see it first hand during New Skool Rules in April, I can say that you're sure to experience some amazing talent at these jam sessions. Good music, great people...
