After they didn't have the purple rain remake LP at the Mdou Moctar shows I went to earlier this year, or last year, or whenever it was (life is a blur) I got the vinyl from their website, thus triggering a revisiting of that classic Mdou Moctar material. He's got a new album out now, and more US tour dates upcoming, at bigger venues now. Makes me happy, because his music makes me happy. Last year I tried to fast during Ramadan but only made it a couple days because I am still a haram infidel I guess, but first day of Ramadan was a Mdou Moctar show in Richmond, and it was very transcendent tbh. Life needs far more spiritual transcendence, even if drug related. Our culture's too damn materialistic, trying to fill our spiritual void with stuff. It doesn't appear to be working.
