Summary:

Senegalese superstar Baaba Maal has long been recognized as one of Africa’s greatest musical treasures. Accompanied by his supercharged electric ensemble and dancers, his high-energy music fuses soulful strains of American funk and jazz with the rich rhythms and timeless purity of traditional West African melodies. The hypnotic grooves and soaring vocals always serve to highlight his message—a call for positive change and a peaceful, united Africa.
“Baaba Maal is one of the finest singers in the world.”—The Guardian
