LABOUR w/ Ndeye Fatou Tine

This month’s show features the great living and active singer Ndeye Fatou Tine, better known as Titi. Starting her career as a supporting vocalist for such artists as previous NTS guest Souleyman Faye in the 90s, Titi released her first solo casette in 2003 following the support of Youssou Ndour — Kune Ak Lila Yëngël — from which her hit Alaaji Ass can be heard here amongst several tracks from her release Façon (2008) and more recent release Ay Nammante Lë (2019). Listen for her fully mbalax cover of No Woman No Cry, her backing vocals for Fallou Dieng’s 1995 release Beusseum Bi, and her most recent single from earlier this year, Dikkatina (2022) to close the show.
