Gipsy rappers

This week in VG: a special of local rappers. Zwolle, The Netherlands has a very lively hip hop scene. Two of the most popular rappers: Rico of Opgezwolle and Typhoon are from our town. But there are also lots of other groups only known in this region. What I found so special about last night's broadcast was the appearance of Gipsy Maffia, two genuine gipsy guys rapping in a mixture of Sinti language and Bargoens (Amsterdam street-version of Yiddish) (performance starts round 14:00 and 19:00) . Playlist, pictures taken during the program, links and more details at VG's website

I wanna tijuana

Cinco de Mayo is seen as a day to celebrate the culture, achievements, and experiences of people with a Mexican background. What a better way to celebrate diversity than with a bunch of Herb Alpert and The Tijuana Brass clones.
Tijuana is a spectacle, a garish border town. This music inside is its fantasy soundtrack, an imaginary postcard, Mexico converted into pop songs handmade for US ears out of a century’s residue of border romance” (from transnational encounters – music and performance at the US-Mexico border by Alejandro L. Madrid)
