But while Janis Joplin's powerful performance of Me and Bobby McGee certainly knocked it out of the park, let's give Kris Kristofferson credit for composing the classic words of that poetic song.

"Little Mogadishu" - the dominant sound is that of radios tuned to a local station play a strange Somali song: Cudur, meaning "Disease", speaks of the dangers of AIDS, and warns Somalis to think twice about the social stigma that comes along with this sexually transmitted disease. Somalis don't typically discuss such taboo subjects in public, much less sing about them in bands whose makeup, music and lyrics transcend every boundary imaginable in the traditionally conservative Somali...
