Lesotho is a landlocked Kingdom, entirely surrounded by South Africa, that became independent from the U.K. in 1966.

Lesotho has its own East Coast vs. West Coast, apparently.
Yes, I read above that they don’t have actual coasts.

Imagine the mayhem if this crosses borders and spills over into Scottish Bagpipes.

Last year I bought a couple pairs of Wrangler Jeans at Target.
The tag said they were made in Lesotho. I had to look up where it was. I had never heard of it before.

I’ve had neighbors that played (very loud) Mexican Ranchero music where the accordion does the rhythm line. Hinka, Hinka, Hinka, Hinka, Hinka, Hinka, ...............................
I will admit gunfire crossed my mind.

“...producers, fans, DJs, musicians’ family members - have been gunned down.”
Killing each other over control and rivalry in music. How is this any different from American rappers?
Shooting each other is a Sunday afternoon pastime.
Man, whitey sure does get around.
