Born in Cote d’Ivoire, raised in Mali, now based in Paris, Fatou has had a life covering a whole gamut of contemporary African experience: fighting parental opposition to her artistic ambitions and the cultural prejudice faced by women throughout Africa, winning success as an actress in film and theatre, before finding her feet in the medium she was always destined to make her own: music.
Fatou's EP will be followed by her full length album Fatou, released 19 September 2011.
