Baaba Maal

Despite not being part of the griot caste, Maal was able to impose himself thanks to a unique voice and a remarkable grasp of his nation’s treasure trove of music. He was signed up by Chris Blackwell for Palm Pictures and has over a dozen international releases to his name, the latest being the 2006 album Kettode & Sangoul.
