In Africa, drums don't only play rhythms, they send messages. Ancient Text Messages: Batá Drums in a Changing World explores an endangered tradition of drum speech in Nigeria, and how that tradition changed and thrived in Cuba, where large numbers of enslaved Yoruba arrived in the 19th century. Producer Ned Sublette speaks with ethnomusicologist Amanda Villepastour, language technician Tunde Adegbola, and drummer Kenneth Schweitzer about how language and music overlap. @afropop #africa #drums #talkingdrums #batadrums #nigeria #cuba #drumming #drummers

The square gumbe frame drum was created centuries ago by enslaved Africans in Jamaica. It traveled to Sierra Leone with freed Maroons from Jamaica’s highlands in 1800. From there, the drum and its evolving, pan-ethnic music spread to 17 African nations. In this program we trace the history and legacy of this joyous and surprising music with field work in Jamaica, Sierra Leone, Ghana and Mali. Produced by Banning Eyre. #podcast #drum #gumbedrum #Jamaica #SierraLeone #drummers #drumming #AfropopWorldwide
