The world has been talking about Ed Sheeran’s Loop Tour lately, but not so much about the world music record that’s actually supporting it. Multihyphenate and long-time friend SueAnn Shiah joins this conversation about white artists using “ethic” sounds to revive their careers. They compare three world music records: Caedmon Call’s “Share the Well,” Ed Sheeran’s “Play,” and of course, Paul Simon’s “Graceland.” Stay for the Going/Not Going at the end (Jeffree Star trigger warning).
