Field support in Afghanistan
The subject of today’s Global Hit is music with a message. Simple messages really. They’re sung by Malian musician Khaira Arby. One message is about her love for the city Timbuktu. That’s reflected in the album title �Timbuktu Tarab.’ The other message Khaira Arby wants to convery is women’s rights.
