About

Oumou Sangare is a Malian singer and known as one of Africa’s most outstanding artists. Using the traditional music of her ancient homeland, Wassalou, Oumou’s songs address many of the social problems taking place in Mali society such as the place of women and polygamous marriages. Her fierce dedication to women’s rights is evident in her song lyrics and her language, as in an interview with The Observer, “‘I will fight until my dying day for the rights of African women and of women throughout the world.” Some of Oumou’s albums include Moussoulou (1989), Ko Sira (1993), Worotan (1996), Laban (2001), Oumou (2003). She released Seya in 2009.
