The Black Muslims from St Louis. Pic: Juma-4 (1999)

Saint-Louis is a town on the north coast of Senegal, just at the border with Mauritania. It was built on two islands which are connected with bridges. Between the old French colonial architecture hip hop has found its way: there are now several rap groups, such as BBS who are on the Petit Frère cassette compilation, and the succesful Black Muslims. The latter is a trio that started out in 1995, did their first shows in 1997, and played at the well known St Louis Jazz festival. They bring a convincing mix of ragga, rap and soul. We will soon add the full CV of the group. For now, listen to their freestyles in the Rumba-Kali online radio special on Senegal.
