Salif Keita

How could a 19-year-old albino boy, descendant from the founder of Mali’s kingdom in the 13th century, turn his back on convention and become one of Africa’s greatest musicians? Only Salif Keita can truly answer that enigma. Since he arrived in Paris in 1984 the singer has established himself as one of the most celebrated personalities in “world music”. Keita has since returned to Bamako and spends much of his time in his home village of Djoliba.
