On the one hand, we will examine international and transnational trends across regions, exemplified in part by the discourse associated with Afropolitanism, an idea akin to African-centered cosmopolitanism. While on the other, we will survey local traditions that continue to be viewed as subaltern as a result of dominant, albeit African-centered, discourses. Drawing from scholarly and popular sources, we will focus on musical practices found in Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, and Malawi.
