Solid pan-African dance music with a powerful activist message for women: 'be the change'. In other words, embody the change you desire. West African superwoman group Les Amazones d'Afriques was founded in 2012 by creative agent Valérie Malot and Malian star
Oumou Sangaré. Over the years, the composition has changed. The singers on this third album Musow Danse come from the countries of Mali,
… Benin, Burkina Faso, Ivory Coast, Nigeria and Congo-Brazzaville. To reach as many people as possible with their women-empowering music, they sing in numerous African languages. The previous two albums were produced by congotronix innovator Doctor L. For Musow Danse, famed pop producer Jacknife Lee (U2, Taylor Swift) was brought in. He wraps powerful solo vocals, polyphonic singing and traditional African rhythms and instruments with a sound inspired by hip-hop, trap-like beats, synthpop and electronica. (SvdP)more
