فريق شمال أفريقيا MBC - 321 sec The north africa team performing a medley of sudanese songs in the MBC hit show Album Arab Stars.
My 2 cents:
I am not sure why did they choose to include some of Mohamed Munir's songs, is it because he consistently and blatantly steals sudanese music without any regards to copyrights or intellectual property, or because Munir's nubian style songs is the closest thing they could find to the "black guy" often stereotyped in egyptian movies as "Abdo the doorman"?
Sudanese music, which is mainly based on a pentatonic scale, is closely related to the music of the horn of Africa (Ethiopia, Eritrea, Somalia). Heck, it is even closer to Korean and Chinese music than it is to arabic music.
I'll not go into the identity crisis and the self-hatred displayed by many of my sudanese brethren, but the sad truth is that the hoobla about this show and the sudanese singer (Khaled) is just mere desperation and attempt to feel accepted by the other ...
