Today, I would present you one of my favourite “bands”-the hip-hop group Yeleen from Burkina Faso, with Smarty and Mawndoé: “Chemin de l’exil”, from their first album “Juste 1 peu 2 lumière“. Modern rap, with elements of African folk music, reggae and afrobeat represents their feelings perfectly. In the year 2007 they got the “Kundé d’or” for the best artist from Burkina Faso. This is an old post…..

I think you will like Daara J, Positive Black Soul – Two hip hop groups from Senegal (Awadi is also cool)
Sister Fa is also good hip-hop. She is a Senegal artist that raps about women’s rights
I’ve already posted two Daara J songs, like thanks, I also know Awadi ;) But Positive Black Soul-I don’t know them, but I’ll listen to their music :)
Ok. And a must is one of the rappers frm Positive Black Soul has gone solo and in a more traditional style does wonderful music. His name is Carlou D and here is my favorite song:
