I agree with the OP..personally cause as Pan Africanist with strong interest in the culture of my people globally naturally I tried to familiarize myself with African music while i must admit my knowledge on the music is limited on a whole i still appreciate it for what is....
here's some stuff i round recently that i dug
don't understand and anything but the message transcends words
sounds like a nice breezy contemporary traditional African music
this sister >>>>>any modern jazz artist regardless of continent
she remind me of African India Irie
I disagree...i'm not even religious like taht that but .African gospel has been one of the more relatable genres of music from the continent imo cause it's very reminiscent of AA gospel without sounding forced
tell me you wasn't feeling the holy ghost when Zimbabwean Kirk Franklin sang praises to the mighty name of Jehovah

Dope.
One thing about a lot of the modern African music is that it doesn't seem to have the very complex melodies and harmonization. It's very simple...that can be good sometimes and not so good other times.

Habesha(Eritrean/Ethiopia) music sounds 
if u didint grow up listening to it. I tried to get my some of my colleagues to listen to the classics but the scalars and beats are too exotic to the western ear. It takes time to appreciate these kinds of music. The great thing about Habesha music is that is that artists have tried to stick to their roots instead of adopting western scalars(unlike most African artists) and most use traditiona lHabesha instruments like the Masenqo with maybe a sax and some synths. Its the same kind of music our ancestors were making a thousand years ago.
