Dumelang. This is only our second look at music of Zambia, which is located in southern Africa, roughly to the north of two countries we've mentioned a lot - Botswana and Zimbabwe.

This is no slight on the music of Zambia, mind you. There's a lot of great African music out there that we're missing, even if you tend to focus only on the southern part of the continent, as we do.

I wasn't able to dig up much background on Chile One Mr Zambia, but he's big in Zambia, partly due to his hit song, "Be My Teacher." Check out the original version here.

I'm partial to the stripped down version embedded below, in which Tianna joins in on vocals and Mic Li plays guitar.
