Hello,

Initially I just want to say that I am really interested in the topic and I think it is very original and exciting. I would suggest possibly looking into how the heavy metal scene differs in major areas of Africa in terms of politics, acceptance, and presence and why some areas are more accepting of it, and why it has developed a bigger presence in one area rather than another. This could be due to religion, westernization, etc. I would also like for you to expand if possible on the government and the public's future in terms of its acceptance. Furthermore I would suggest looking into the following questions. Is African heavy metal itself different in its different regions? Is it different than Western heavy metal in terms of lyrics, message etc? Does it look like it will be accepted with no arrests in the future? Why or why not? It would also be interesting to see a brief mention of the presence of other genres of music and where heavy metal fits in comparison to other genres to see how big or small it’s presence is. You have well constructed paragraphs that tie together politics, and background. Overall this is heading towards a really good direction. Do not get overwhelmed feeling like you have to include every single country considering this is an article on the continent of Africa rather than focusing on a specific area or country. Great job.
