Parallel Musical Universe

I caught an article on Alpha Blondy in our paper the other day. He has a new album called Merci. I guess he's become increasingly distressed with the state of the Ivory Coast. The revolution there was attributed in part to the frustration which he expressed in his music. Some soldiers threw a coup and as is common with revolutions it was time to "meet the new boss, same as the old boss." Do I have a point, not really, I've just been thinking of my own idealism and how it sometimes gets in the way of living life...
