Album Notes

Over the course of 6 weeks in Dar es Salaam, Tanzania, Urban Project worked with 20 street youth to facilitate the recording of a six-track Bongo Flava album. The youth were compensated with safer housing for one year, a daily salary, and school fees and uniforms for those already enrolled in school.
