Listen for such hits as Goreé and several tracks featuring Babacar Dieng and Mada Ba singing together from the 1997 release presented by Omar Pene et le Super Diamono. Finishing the show with two modern tracks indebted to the time of Mada Ba are Momo Dieng’s single 'Ndekete Yoo' from earlier this year and Eljaz’s 'Maan Rek' also from this year.
