Great music from Somalia

When I have worked as a local news reporter in Stockholm, I have sometimes written about the annual Somali football tournament SEUKI in Stockholm that gathers Somali communities from all over the world. One thing I have always noticed is the great music either coming from the speakers or performed by singers at the event. If you are interrested in Somali music you can read more about it´s history here.

One great example of Somali music is Dur-Dur Band´ song "Yabaal".

The Somali language can also be heard in Swedish rapper Imenella´s song "Moves". She raps in Swedish but is of Somali descent and has included the Somali language in the refrain.
