Rapping the News in Senegal: Hip-Hop duo Keyti and Xuman's 'Journal Rappe'

People are always trying to conjure up a magic formula for getting young people interested in the news, but two Senegalese rappers may have cracked it. Keyti and Xuman - both veterans of Dakar's huge hip-hop scene - present the Journal Rappe, a short TV show that covers the week's news in a hip-hop format. The show was launched in April as a new way for the duo to combine their music with news, politics and entertainment. Journal Rappe takes a humourous approach to current affairs but the rappers take their mission seriously, regularly criticising politicians and encouraging people to register to vote. "I think that the only way to draw people in and capture their attention is to make the product interesting," said Keyti. "That they see we are having a good time making it, because whether it's Xuman or me, we have been perceived as engaged and serious artists and all, and all that allows us to break the ice." Keyti and Xuman are no strangers to Senegalese politics; they have been involved in campaigning for more than a decade. They used their music to encourage residents to register to vote ahead of the country's 2000 elections, and that ultimately helped former opposition figure Abdoulaye Wade get elected. They were also involved in the Y'en a Marre campaign to oust him when he fell out of favour after two terms, and now Macky Sall is President. Their political influence aside, Keyti and Xuman are good musicians who have a legion of loyal fans who attend their gigs and watch their content on YouTube. Report by Mark Morris.

From there, it quickly spread to Liberia and Sierra Leone. Cases also appeared in Senegal and Nigeria, and there was another outbreak in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Today, Liberia is at the center of the epidemic, with more than 3,000 cases of infection. About half of them have been fatal. As President Barack Obama announced that he would be sending American military personnel to West Africa to help combat the epidemic, VICE News traveled to Monrovia to spend time with those on the front lines of the outbreak.

The Global Thrift Store: Is second hand clothing stopping economic development in Senegal? For downloads and more information visit: http://www.journeyman.tv/?lid=67074 In Senegal, cotton fields stretch as far as the eye can see. Yet this natural wealth is increasingly overlooked in favour of used foreign imports as the country experiences a boom in second-hand trading from France. "The French throw these clothes away? Really? They throw them away?" Fatou Dia, an employee at one of Senegal's second-hand sorting centres, is surprised to learn the origin of their stock. The country is experiencing a boom in second-hand trading, and separating unwanted garments enables Fatou to equip her daughter with school supplies. "I'm buying it little by little. I buy one thing, and then the next thing the next month. In this way, I manage". What is a lifeline to some is a business opportunity to others. "As far as wealth is concerned, human beings are never sated. Because he who does not have his own house is nothing". For Aliou Diallo, this cheap European clothing was a route to a better life. But in a country whose textile industry is rapidly disappearing from view, are these new imports doing more harm than good?

Reports of widespread mistreatment and abuse have seen them branded by rights groups as a form of modern day slavery. "At first it's really tough. They'll hit you", warns a former Quranic student. "I was a psychological wreck." Like many young Talibe he had to beg on the streets to earn his place in an over-crowded Daraa. While rights groups condemn the practice as modern day slavery, many Quranic teachers, or marabouts, argue that without government assistance, they simply don't have the resources to support their students. "Neither the parents nor the government gives me money to take care of the Talibes", one teacher explains. Many are now calling for the government to bring the unregulated Daraas into the national curriculum, but until then many young Talibe will remain on the streets.

Social Net Link is the first web platform focusing on tech news and new media in Senegal. Out of about 150 news websites, less than five of them specialize on the dissemination of technological information. The project was created by young Senegalese bloggers and journalists who wanted to share their passion of technology. As a hub country with connected and equipped technological infrastructures, Senegal has less than five web sites that provide information on information and communication technology. There is a demand in tech news. In Senegal, there are more than 6 million internet ( Mobile ) subscribers (out of a population of over 14 million inhabitants). This means that half of the population has an Internet connection. The mobile penetration rate is close to 100% and there are more than a million Facebook users. Social Net Link wants to responds to a real need and promote local content ‘/ news. Our vision is to be the most accessed platform in Senegal and Africa by 2020. Our goal is also to give voice to all tech entrepreneurs and increase the visibility and image of Senegal across the world. This is why Social Net Link works with correspondents everywhere in the world. Consisting of various sections rich in content, the platform allows the user to have access to information without effort when searching. Every week, we focus on presenting a Senegalese entrepreneur in the Feature section. We insist on the role of the entrepreneur in the ecosystem and present her/him as a role model who inspires African youth. The content also comprises the categories of Tips, Social Media and IT Business Knowledge. We also accommodate contributions from invited authors. Videos play an important role in our platform. We develop short videos to inform users about the current technology. Just access the URL: http://www.socialnetlink.org. @WSAOffice #WSA15

Description: In a recently launched news show that mixes music with current events, a well-known Dakar rap duo critique their country's politicians as Obama visits what he calls a 'strong' democracy. Story: Two of Senegal's most popular rappers Keyti and Xuman, are quickly becoming known in the country as broadcast journalists—for at least once a week. The two are veterans of Dakar's prolific hip-hop scene and co-anchor the 'Journal Rappe', a short TV segment that presents local and global news in a musical format each week. The show focus for the past few days is on U.S. President Barack Obama who arrived in Senegal on Wednesday. [Xuman, Journal Rappe Show Co-host, Rapper]: "Obama, he is Kenyan, but it's not because he has Kenyan roots that he is the president of Africans, we must be very careful. What happened when he was elected, it's a black president but American, before everything, even if he has African origins. It's a way of saying that the American dream is possible." The show highlights serious issues, often using humor. [Keyti, Journal Rappe Show Co-host, Rapper]: "I think that the only way to draw people in and capture their attention is to make the product interesting. That they see we are having a good time making it, because whether it's Xuman or me, we have been perceived as engaged and serious artists and it all allows us to break the ice." Xuman says they work hard because they believe their music can help communicate with people. [Xuman, Journal Rappe Show Co-host, Rapper]: "Rap is to speak; it's rhyming poetry, like it's the rhyming poetry and each one is a poet within himself, each one has a poet's spirit within them. The difference is you have to know the rhythm to make the music. So I hope the Journal will grow. There are a lot more things we can do, and the biggest mission is to show also that Africa is capable of doing good things." The weekly news segment broadcast in French and Senegalese gets tens-of-thousands of views on Youtube and features on national television.
