Synopsis
Product Description
Sister Fa is Senegal's Queen of hip-hop. But getting to the top wasn't an easy road - for a woman to break through in an almost exclusively male field within a male-dominated society, it was a long hard journey. Struggle breeds compassion, and Sister Fa uses her international album debut Sarabah -- Tales from the Flipside of Paradise to speak out against the injustices rampant in her native country. Warm, groovy and unmistakably African, her raps, in Wolof, Manding, Jola and French, roll elegantly over beats as well as traditional sounds (kora and djembe), delivering tracks far removed from rap cliches, and more influenced by 80s Old Skool hip-hop than current rap trends.
