Stocking Stuffers 2018

<p>We’re hopeless at making Top-10 lists&mdash;or even top-40s&mdash;so you’ll have to settle for this: a whole hour of some of our favorite tunes of 2018. Casting the net deep and wide, Banning and Georges spin new records by our old favorites, the freshest cuts from new artists and reissues that have gone unheard for years. If you’re looking for gifts for the African-music lover in your life&mdash;even if that’s you!&mdash;you’ll find something to love here. From Parisian Afro-trap to Angelique Kidjo’s reimagined Talking Heads record, from buzzing Saharan blues to swaying Cape Verdean song, 2018 is leaving us richer in music.</p> <p>Produced by Banning Eyre</p> <p><em><strong>BONUS</strong>:&nbsp;</em><a href="https://afropop.test.ejaedesign.com/articles/all-the-music-from-our-stocking-stuffers-show"><em>Check out our list of all the albums we talked about on the show!</em></a></p>
