Putumayo Presents-Woman of Africa by Ulysses56

Putumayo Presents: Women Of Africa 2004 A celebration of soulful and inspirational music by female artists from across Africa Rip VBR covers included Women have always played an essential role in the preservation of African culture. From lullabies sung to sleepy children to chants of celebration, women are important bearers of tradition. Unlike some areas in the world where females are discouraged from taking part in public musical performance, in sub-Saharan Africa, music is an essential social activity for all members of the community. While many musical instruments are traditionally played exclusively by men, women often provide the voice of Africa?s music. This legacy carries over from traditional to contemporary music, and many of today?s most popular singers in Africa are women. Women of Africa features Putumayo?s favorite songs by women from Algeria to Zimbabwe. Ranging from internationally revered artists like Angèlique Kidjo (Benin), Tarika (Madagascar), Women of Mambazo (South Africa), Khadja Nin (Burundi) and Dorothy Masuka (Zimbabwe), to rising stars such as Judith Sephuma (South Africa), Souad Massi (Algeria), and Sibongile Khumalo (South Africa), to new discoveries Nawal (Comoros), Maria de Barros (Cape Verde), Kaïssa (Cameroon), and Dobet Gnahoré (Ivory Coast), the artists on Women of Africa represent a wide spectrum of today?s African music scene.
