Reply to comment by circuitbreak in TIL in the tiny African kingdom of Lesotho, a local style of accordion folk music known as Famo has sprung a fierce bloody gang war which has contributed to its high homicide rate. Little-known to the outside world, scores of musicians and hundreds of DJs, fans, family members etc. have been slain. by delano1998

It's actually for control of illegal goldmines that the music fans work at according to another commenter.
