MUSIC (Mozambique): Skalled's Fabulous HITSAKILE

Here's a not-so-easy-to-come-by 'find', as far as the African pop music scene goes. Skalled is Mozambican -- a country that's off the beaten path, so to speak -- which just goes to show that talent is sprouting all over the continent, even as most of us remain firmly 'local' (and ironically 'foreign' as well) -- in our musical tastes.

HITSAKILE (which features Zico and Uhuru) is a super hit, is what I'm saying. Skalled's is a captivating, endearing voice. I think I see that it'll endure. She'll be around 'sum'. The dancing, by all who dance here, is a treat to the discerning eye. All that sure-footed, quick-foot maneuvering!
