Amadou & Mariam: "Masiteladi" (Video)

The animated video for Amadou & Mariam's excellent "Masiteladi" imagines what life is like for a stick man who up and quits his job and follows the group around instead. Rough times come when his lady throws him out, but at least he's got the harmonies of "Masiteladi" to keep him company.

"Masiteladi" is on Amadou & Mariam's Welcome to Mali, which is out now via Nonesuch. [Pitchfork]
