About "Kufilaw" by Maryam Mursal
Maryam Mursal's 'Kufilaw' pulses with the ache of exile. Her voice, weathered yet resilient, rides a groove of Somali rhythms and Western funk. The title means 'don't go,' and you feel the push-pull of home and horizon—a bittersweet dance between what's lost and what's found.
