Youssou N'Dour
Youssou N'Dour (French pronunciation: [jusu nˈduʁ]; born 1 October 1959) is a Senegalese singer, percussionist, songwriter, composer, occasional actor, businessman and a politician. In 2004, Rolling Stone described him as, "perhaps the most famous singer alive" in Senegal and much of Africa. From April 2012 to October 2012, he was Senegal's Minister of Tourism and Culture, and from October 2012 to September 2013, he was Senegal's Minister of Tourism and Leisure.
N'Dour helped to develop a style of popular Senegalese music known in the Serer language as mbalax, which derives from the conservative Serer music tradition of "Njuup". He is the subject of the award-winning films Return to Goree directed by Pierre-Yves Borgeaud and Youssou N'Dour: I Bring What I Love directed by Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi, which were released around the world.
In 2006, N'Dour was cast as Olaudah Equiano in the film Amazing Grace.
Life
N'Dour was born in Dakar to a Wolof mother and a Serer father. At age 12, he began to perform and within a few years was performing regularly with the Star Band, Dakar's most popular group during the early 1970s. Several members of the Star Band joined Orchestra Baobab about that time.

Exactly where was the line It can't be that far behind I don't remember we've been stepping over it
If I sold out to the underway Than it's really hard to say And anyway I got nothing to show for it
I know you In to this and out of that in seven seconds flat Whatever you do You take it to the to point where it's me Not you, and you really did not attack
Whatever you do, you've got to cut it out quick If this is some kind of trick I've got no way to see you trough it, no
Yeah whatever you do, you've got to cut it out quick If this is some kind of trick, I've got no way to see you through it
I know you In to this and out of that in seven seconds flat Ah got on the road Need not spell it out Need not saying exactly that
