This week on Dance, You Fools! For This Is Club Toasterhead!, we celebrate Raï (راي), a style of pop/folk music that originated among Bedouin Arabs in Oran, Algeria in the 1930s. These early Bedouins would probably not recognize the style today, as its resurgence from the 1970s to 1990s blended the traditional sounds and modes with western pop music. The word Raï means "opinion" in Arabic, and the genre is known for political lyrics that have gotten artists censored by repressive Maghrebi governments from time to time.
