“I never experimented with the hoddu like I wanted to do. Like on the song "Allah Addu," the hoddu and the voice is something that belongs to West African culture. When you go to the north of Mali, in the past it was just the singer and one instrument player. We never really did have that on our CDs. On some other songs, like "Laare Yoo," we have a whole section of hoddu, something like four of them playing together.” WholeWantedTogetherPastSongCultureVoiceFourPlayerInstrumentsWestSingersSectionsCdsAfrican CultureMaliPlaying Together Author:Baaba Maal

“I didn't major in anthropology in college, but I do feel I had an education in different cultures very early on. My parents divorced when I was eleven, and my father immediately married a woman with three children and was with her for five years. When they got divorced, he immediately married a woman with four children. In the meantime, my mother married a man who had seven children. So I was going from one family to another between the ages of eleven and eighteen.” MenFeelsYearsChildrenDifferentAgeMotherCultureThreeFatherParentFiveFourCollegeMarriedMajorsOur ChildrenSevenFive YearsDivorcedElevenAnthropologyEighteenDifferent Cultures Author:Lily King
