Ze Manel Fortes - "Afrika Unite"

Audio Track - Afro-beat / Jazz / Acoustic : Guinea -Bissau ( former Portuguese colony )

In 1982, Z.. released his first solo album "Tustumunhos di Aonti" (Yesterday's Testimony), which sounded the alarm over the formation of a new repressive ruling class in Guinea-Bissau. The album was a national event (people in Guinea-Bissau today still sing the songs ), but the political environment was heating up and Manel's fans were concerned for his safety. Manel fled Guinea-Bissau. This self-exile took him to Portugal, France and, finally, the United States.
