  • I’m trying to figure out if you have a misplaced modifier with “obscure, lesser known”. You have it modifying “country” in the title. In other words, you want musicians of any level of renown who come from a lesser known country.

    However, you mention Fela Kuti, who is from Nigeria, which is not a lesser known country. You would have to be very ignorant of basic world geography to not have heard of Nigeria.

    And, as usual, commenters are completely ignoring your criteria by mentioning musicians from Germany and New Zealand and Columbia and Vietnam.

    So perhaps you meant obscure musicians instead of obscure countries, but that would still leave me wondering what subset of countries you intended? Just countries other than your own? But if so, I don’t know what country you are in.












  • In case non-native English speakers don’t understand.

    The word “murder” is an old legal term meaning: unlawful killing of a person. This implies that there are lawful ways to kill a person. Slang usage of the word “murder” is less precise.

    A proper translation of the Bible’s 10 Commandments prohibits murder, that is, don’t kill anyone in a way that your tribe forbids. It does not prohibit every kind of killing of people, that would be ludicrous. This is why those Christians who have the viewpoint of 100% no killing of people are misguided.
