Pan-African Connect - Wiyaala (Ghana)
Listen now
Description
Wiyaala AKA 'The Young Lioness of Africa', is the personification of modern Africa - creative, brave, strong and beautiful. Her name, Wiyaala, literally translates to "the doer" in Sissala, her tribal language in which she sings alongside English, and perfectly describes her approach to life. Frequently compared to Angelique Kidjo and Grace Jones, Wiyaala's music is truly Afro-Pop fusing her African roots with contemporary world Pop music.
