Chiwoniso Plays Zimbabwean 'Rebel' Music Tue, 14 Oct 2008 09:07:00 -0400 On her new album, Rebel Woman, Chiwoniso shows off an assertive style that no other female singer in Zimbabwe can match. In her songs, she stands up for her country's children and poor. One of the most compelling voices in African music today, she confidently borrows from other genres — especially American ones. Girl Talk Chops Pop Music To Pieces Fri, 10 Oct 2008 10:27:00 -0400 Mash-up artist Girl Talk may feature more than 300 samples on his new album, Feed the Animals, but creator Greg Gillis says that he has only 100 MP3s on his laptop. He's more interested in the bits and pieces of music, even when it's only a split second.
