Meant to read this post as soon as I saw it but decided to wait to really absorb it. You found a gem here, this type of beat is called Nayabingi, the slaves used it moons ago to chant and summon the ancestors to help them fight for freedom. It is still used today in many Nayabigi communities today, so the primitive you heard is right. You are right about the world becoming more inhumane and desensitization of the nations. This current revolution is the most fast paced the world has seen and it is causing a lot of friction in humanity, many that won't be so evident but the dominoes have begun and it is easier now to lose ones' self in the mix. More love more life is what is need, love for humanity and the planet that sustains us.
Blessings bro!
