From Nothing to Something – How Hip-Hop can create work in a poor country as Senegal

Amadou Fall Ba
Amadou Fall Ba cultural operator is a young Senegalese who were born in 1981. In the years 1994 – 1995 he discovered hip hop as all young people in Senegal at that time. It has a small artistic career as a rapper in his band Lyrics Mortels with two other friends from 2001 – 2006.The fashion scene is crowded and talented. We are all like little children trying to find our way in this industry without a real path or cadre. You have to create your own way. And it is maybe a strenght because only the more talented or motivated will succeed in living their dream and living from it. Link Interview
