Malian star and feminist role model Oumou Sangaré has released her new single ‘Wassulu Don’ to coincide with International Women’s Day on March 8, 2022. The track mixes Oumou’s characteristic Malian sound and voice with elements of blues and rock to create a jubilant groove. It is a demonstration of hometown pride for Wassulu, an area in the southwestern corner of Mali where Oumou’s family originates from. The accompanying video, directed by Justyna Obasi and filmed in Accra, Ghana, features a series of scenes of modern African women celebrating and flourishing in their own hometown communities.
