Cuando un grupo japonés se pone a rescatar canciones tradicionales japonesas con ritmos latinos y afro, el resultado es 'Minyo Crusaders', un grupo que se ha convertido en embajador de la cumbia, el mambo o la salsa en el archipiélago nipón. En la playlist de este mes de mayo, destacamos asímismo el retorno del dúo francés 'Neg Marrons' y terminamos con el fenómeno argentino 'Ca7riel y Paco Amoroso' y su nuevo disco 'Papota'. Hoy les presentamos a los japoneses Minyo Crusaders, cuya traducción literalmente es "los cruzados del Minyo"; el minyo es una canción tradicional del archipiélago nipón. El grupo de Fussa, una ciudad al oeste de Tokio, se formó por iniciativa del líder Katsumi Tanaka y el cantante Freddie Tsukamoto, ambos apasionados por el minyo de los 60, mezclado con jazz y música latina.Después de un primer álbum publicado en 2017, 'Ecos of Japan', y un EP exclusivamente de cumbia 'Minyo Cumbiero De Tóquio a Bogotá' editado en 2020, vuelven con un nuevo trabajo 'Tour of Japan' cuya salida está prevista este mes de julio, lo edita la casa discográfica '180g', un sello especializado en importaciones japonesas.'Tour Of Japan' sigue teniendo una alta dosis de música latina, con mambo, cumbia y salsa, pero también ritmos afro. Seguimos con canciones tradicionales japonesas y con arreglos que reviven clásicos de todo el archipiélago como el tema Kaigara Bushi.En la actualidad de este mes de mayo, destacamos también el retorno de una banda emblemática del reggae hip hop francés 'Neg Marrons', la traducción francesa de "cimarrones", los esclavos que consiguieron liberarse huyendo a través de las selvas y que formaron comunidades.Jacky y Ben, los dos integrantes de los Neg Marrons, son originarios de los suburbios de París, formaron parte del colectivo Secteur A, un grupo que tuvo mucho éxito en el hip hop francés de los 90. Los dos artistas destacaron también con otro colectivo que triunfó también bastante, Bisso Na Bisso más dedicado a los ritmos africanos. Jacky y Ben, con casi 50 años, están preparando un nuevo álbum para 2025 pero ya tenemos al nuevo sencillo 'Un peu de temps', (un poco de tiempo en español). Un tema, como siempre, muy reggae y muy dance hallEl fenómeno argentino Ca7riel y Paco AmorosoCuando el músico guitarrista Catriel Guerreiro conoció al cantante, batería y compositor Ulises Guerriero, se crea el duo Ca7riel y Paco Amoroso.Originarios de Buenos Aires, empezaron en 2018 haciendo música trap latina experimental. Adquieren relevancia nacional con algunos títulos, pero poco a poco van cambiando de estilo, mezclando trap con rap, música Electro, música pop y funky.El éxito llega rápido con dos nominaciones a los Grammys del 2022. En 2024 durante su gira 'Paga a Dios Tour' arrasan en el programa Tiny Desk de la Radio Pública de Estados Unidos que ya suma más de 34 millones de vistas en Youtube, donde tocan con una banda acústica que francamente sorprendió a todos.De este éxito acaban de sacar un nuevo disco 'Papota', super original y conceptual. Un disco justamente donde se puede escuchar este mismo concierto. Esta banda argentina nos ha conquistado completamente.
Kathleen Lynn – a Rebel WomanI hope you all had an enjoyable Easter. Across the island and further afield commemorations were held at countless locations to remember those who fought in the 1916 Easter Rising and in all of the generations of the freedom struggle. The Belfast turnout was big and Pearse Doherty, who made an exceptional speech, was given a very warm welcome. I saw no mention of his remarks or those of other republican speakers on RTE, BBC or other broadcasters. So much for public service broadcasting! The story of Easter 1916 reverberates with many remarkable accounts of courage as a small band of Irish Republicans took on the largest Empire ever to have existed in human history. They include many women. Among these are Julia Grenan, Winifred Carney and Elizabeth O'Farrell who were in the GPO and in Moore St. when the decision to surrender was taken. Winifred Carney's statue now stands proudly in front of Belfast City Hall. Finding their place in a new IrelandIn his Easter remarks at the Republican Plot in Milltown Cemetery Teachta Pearse Doherty referenced the fact that the “momentum for Irish Unity grows stronger every day…. it is fast becoming the defining political project of our generation.” Pearse also addressed the importance of preparing for unity and in doing so the imperative of engaging with the unionist section of our people. He said: “There are many issues for republicans and unionists to talk about. We need to address the genuine fears and concerns of unionists in a meaningful way.”That means examining what they mean when they say they are British. We must be willing he said; “to explore and be open to new ideas. We need to look at ways in which the unionist people can find their place in a new Ireland.” A Barren Landscape of DeathThe Gaza Strip is one eighth the size of County Antrim and has a population three times larger. Imagine if Belfast north of the River Lagan and including Mallusk and Newtownabbey were levelled to the ground. No schools, no hospitals, no homes – just tents – no churches, no shops, no transport system, no sewage system. A barren levelled landscape of death. Gaza City has been under strict Israeli siege for seven weeks. No bread, no water, no fuel, no medicines have been allowed to enter the area. The people – the children – are starving. And all the time the international community with a few honourable exceptions does nothing – is complicit in this genocide.All that FussA friend of mine in County Tyrone was taking her seven year old daughter to her local Gael Scoil when the child drew her attention to the road sign for Londonderry. Someone had drawn a line through the London bit.‘Why is that like that Mammy?' She asked. So Mammy gave a children's explanation. ‘But they are both wrong' the child replied ‘It's not Londonderry or Derry. Its Doire.'And that dear readers is why there is all that fuss about Irish or bilingual signage.

In episode 2, I continue on with the "Wonder Years" which gives some insight on what I was getting myself into from the 01 - 08 timeframe. The particular club scene I enjoyed in Japan, whether in Yokohama, or in my hometown of Fussa is to speak of, and I talk about artists that I took to during this period like Nelly, Fabolous, Eminem, 50 Cent and T.I. and how a recognized stage presence helped me later on down the line as an emcee. I speak about myself playing basketball and how an unfortunate injury at a professional tryout led to some notable modeling jobs that helped get me noticed by a promotion group. Thank you for tuning in and enjoy!

The director of a hospital in Fussa, Tokyo, where a woman with a kidney ailment died after a surgeon discontinued dialysis on her with her consent, has admitted that he approved the surgeon's proposal to stop such treatment. "In ordinary medical practices, doctors offer various options for treatment," Takeshi Matsuyama, head of Fussa Hospital in the western Tokyo city of Fussa, said in an interview with the Mainichi Shimbun.
