Youssou N’Dour
Saturday, June 13th, 6pm – 9pm
on Transpacific Sound Paradise with Rob Weisberg
Youssou N’Dour is simply the most popular African artist in the world today. He is truly an icon – Time Magazine put him on their list of the 100 most influential people in the world. But sometimes such influence has a price: In 2004 he broke from his usual two streams of music – “mbalax” dance albums for the Senegalese audience, and crossover pop albums for the international audience – and did something entirely different: An album of songs performed with an Egyptian orchestra and dedicated to Sufi saints called “Egypt”. While Egypt was a huge hit abroad, leading to his first Grammy, there was a firestorm back home in the Islamic country of Senegal, where some considered the songs to be blasphemous. A new film, “I Bring What I Love” (premiering at the BAM Muslim Voices festival on Saturday June 6 and opening at IFC Center June 12), documents the controversy and the rapprochement that followed. Youssou N’Dour is in town for the premiere, and a sold-out BAM concert to launch the Muslim Voices festival, and he will talk with Rob about this experience, his latest cd Rokku Mi Rokka (Nonesuch) and other musical adventures.
