Call Me Ismaêl

Three men, one first name. Mr. Lô is from Senegal and Mr. Isaac is from Cote d'Ivoire; as is Mr. Wonder, despite the obvious Geordie influence in the song title.

"Raciste" - Ismaêl Lô

"Joe Bleck" - Ismaêl Isaac

"Hawayo" - Ismaêl Wonder

Here's another Mr. Wonder for you.

  2. There are apparently two: the self-titled album from 1990 and acompilation called 'Jammu Africa'. But I can't answer your second question because i don't have either of them. I can't remember where I picked it up from to be honest. Somewhere on the internet probably.
