Culture Raï Afrikana Radio

Afrikana Radio – Culture Raï looks north to Algeria and the wider Maghreb. Its playlist follows Raï from older, immediately recognisable voices to current productions that use modern beats and arrangements. Love, identity, struggle and celebration return often in the songs, carried by expressive singing and the genre’s characteristic melodies. The channel does not treat Raï as a museum piece; it shows a living style changing from one generation to the next. Culture Raï sits within the Afrikana Best Sounds project, whose stations introduce different regions and moods of African music.
