Review of Dapo Sings on Waikiki

For 3:17, you won't hear a word of English, and even as I write this, I am torn by a sense that I should be aware of what Dapo is singing about, where the Naxi come from, and so on. But the sheer oomph of his singing is great.
Presenters might talk in and around the piece without doing too much harm if they were to get more info about Dapo, the Naxi, and the content of the song.
