Oumou Sangaré

Known as the “voice of Wassoulou,” Oumou Sangaré presents herself as one of the most influential figures in African music, bringing together an artistic career and activism in a single identity. The Malian artist draws on the traditions of southern Mali and the impact of *Moussolou* (1990) to build an intense show, with a luminous stage presence and a voice that crosses cultures. A Grammy winner, she has collaborated with Alicia Keys and was sampled by Beyoncé, confirming an international reach that does not hide her roots or the strength of her message.
