Thanks guys for positive feedback, that helps.
Since Prophet mentioned Fela Kuti's youngest son, Seun, I found some links. The Egypt 80 band that Seun fronts was started by his father:
YouTube - Seun Kuti & Egypt 80 in Dakar

Ah, K'naan and Mwafrica. Now you're getting into East Africa and current rap/hip hop. K'naan's from Somolia and Mwafrica from Kenya. I have heard of The Dusty Foot Philosopher, and went back and listened to The African Way with Mwafrica. I like them together. Only thing I could find on Mwafrica was his myspace page--see both the track and the video:
