Queen Salawa Abeni - The Queen of Waka

Work:: Queen Salawa Abeni - The Queen of Waka (S0442384819)

One of the most remarkable singers in Africa today. Waka's music is driven by the rich eloquence of talking drums, bata drums and is underpinned by Yoruba ethnic drums. The call-and-response harmonies of the backing vocalists and Queen Salawa Abeni's voice combine to make her music a journey through the heart of Africa's most dynamic culture.
