Tiken Jah Fakoly, a well-known reggae artist who's been based in Bamako's Niamakoro neighborhood for the past several years, just released a single entitled "An ka wili" or "Let us rise up," urging Malians to unite against the Islamists who have taken over the north of their country.
True to form, Tiken Jah grounds his call to action in Mali's precolonial history.
Translation of Tiken Jah Fakoly's new single 'An Ka Willi' by Bruce Whitehouse + explanations on the political context. #Mali
Such a great song. Love Tike Jah Fakoly!
