about

‘Ségou to Lagos’ is the track that names the album by Solomane Doumbia. The song takes up a melody from the Wasolo folklore and it is the track that refers most directly to Fela’s afrobeat.

The lyrics in bambara speak of a common issue among West African countries, immigration, and ask those who have left to return home, to the source.
