The World of Youssou N'Dour

"...a singer with a voice so extraordinary that the history of Africa seems locked inside it." -Rolling Stone Magazine

The father of mbalax, a jumping, intoxicating blend of African, Caribbean and pop rhythms, N'Dour's voice has been called one of the finest in the world. The two-time Grammy nominee has an amazing 4-5 octave range and sings in English, French, Fulani, Serer and his native Wolof. During his career Youssou has collaborated with a lengthy list of influential artists including Peter Gabriel, Paul Simon, Bob Dylan, Neneh Cherry, and Branford Marsalis and wrote The Beauty of the World at Play, the official anthem of FIFA, soccer's world governing organization.

With his energizing rhythms and soaring vocals, Youssou N'Dour's music breaks down all language and cultural barriers. This Collector's DVD Edition highlights the man, the music and the culture that made him Africa's most influential and prominent performer.
