Tracka De Day: Giving Thanks "Shukuru"

[embed width="560"][/embed]


OKA contributor Kate Bomz put us on to this newish video for the song "I Don't Wanna Be Alone (Shukuru)" by Tanzanian rapper AY and Kenyan afro-pop band Sauti Sol. "Shukuru" means "thank you," or "gratitude" in Swahili so we thought it a fitting match for this season of thanks in the United States.
