"Routledge Handbook of African Popular Culture, which brings together an international team of scholars from different disciplines to reflect on African popular cultural imaginaries, is an important contribution to the burgeoning discipline of popular culture in Africa. Published in 2022, Grace Musila’s edited tome is a valuable demonstration of the important ways this subfield seeks to bring newspaper columns, televised English Premier League football, speculative arts, romance fiction, comedy, cinema, music, and digital genres into a productive dialogue with each other." - Nick Mdika Tembo, author of Eastern African Literary and Cultural Studies
