The finalists are here! They arrived in Dakar last week, and they’re currently training at Bouba Ndour’s house for the final contest which will take place this Wednesday evening. I’ve been hanging out with the contestants and recording some interviews and impromptu jam sessions at Bouba’s house. Check out this video for a taste of the talent that’s in store for the Xeex Sibbiru (Fight Malaria) Song Contest Finale. I’ll put together some more montage’s of the training and the final concert this week!

Stay tuned and xeex on,
