'Geej' is a bold work by a true African maverick. Senegal's El Hadj N'Diaye has forged a unique style somewhere between protest songs and traditional music. Accompanying himself on guitar and harmonica, he sings about social and political issues like the ravages of urbanisation, AIDS, street peddlers and the skin-bleaching creams that young girls use.

"From its most tender whisper to its most anguished gut cry, N'Diaye's voice is a marvel, without question worthy of his superstar countrymen."
