Book review
In this volume, Tayin Falola and Tyler Fleming compile a vibrant selection of essays about the role of popular music in African societies. In light of concerns that too much African music scholarship has either a narrow anthropological purpose or a purely mechanistic fascination with the music itself, the editors state their intentions to ‘wrestle’ music scholarship from the grip of ethnographers and musical technicians.
