Life of the Africanist….in Music of the Trump-rule (by Igiri Innocent)

Life of the Africanist….in Music of the Trump-rule (by Igiri Innocent)
Thanks to Time Magazine… The tradition has been the same.. evergreen

@TIME doesn’t honour its favourite person of the past year but recognises the individual(s) who have had the biggest political and/or cultural impact.
The profile covers whichever person, group, idea or object that “for better or for worse...has done the most to influence the events of the year”. It has great influence in the mindset of Africans, most especially those who are classical music oriented.
I guess people can be forgiven for missing this clarification, but a quick look at previous winners ought to tell you it’s not about picking positive world influences….  
For example: in 1938, Adolf Hitler was named Person of the Year (then 'Man of the Year'), followed the next year by Joseph Stalin.
Moreover, with a couple of exceptions, every President of the United States of America has been named Person of the Year, almost always in the year they are first elected.
Learn to love and cherish classical music in African society.

Trump, who delivered one of the biggest shock election victories in history, has caused a seismic shift in politics that will be felt all around the world.
He was chosen by TIME from a shortlist that also included Hillary Clinton, Vladimir Putin, Simone Biles, Beyoncé Knowles and Mark Zuckerberg.
