Coumba Gawlo
The griot singer Coumba Gawlo was born in February 1972 in Tivaouane, Senegal. She was raised in the tradition of African music with a singer for a mother and a composer for a father. The success of her debut album entitled "Seytané" released in 1990 opened the doors to a brilliant career. She then relesed "Accident," "Déwénéti", "Kor Dior", "Aldiana" and "Amine" between 1991 and 1997.
The single "Pata Pata" from his album "Yomalé" was produced by Patrick Bruel and released in 1998, earned her great dedication on the international stage. This song was a hit in Europe in the summer of 1998, enabling her to win a double gold record and a platinum disc.
In 2001, she released the album "Salii Saléé" with which she won the Kora Award as the Best Artist from West Africa. Coumba Gawlo also conducts humanitarian operations for the education and well-being of children through her association with "Lumière pour l'enfance". Today she is the Goodwill Ambassador of UNICEF, Ambassador for the fight against poverty UNDP and Patron of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. In particular, it was originally the Great concert "Afrik for Haïti" in 2010, at the Stade Leopold Sedar Senghor in Dakar.

Coumba Gawlo has redefined what it means to be a woman. I could probably say that she redefines sexiness, talent, maybe even humanity. She is strong, confident and dignified.
And let us not forget that she is caring. Caring for each other is a great part of what raises us above the level of merely clever apes. I could live very happily in a world filled with women like her.
Did I forget to mention that she is one of the better-looking people in this world?
