Youssou N’Dour - Nothing’s in Vain

Youssou N’Dour - Nothing’s in VainHe first came to prominence on Peter Gabriel’s “In Your Eyes” back in 1985. Since then, the Senegalese tenor has risen to the forefront of African music and scored a trilingual (French, English, Wolof) global pop hit with“7 Seconds,” a stirring duet with Neneh Cherry. But N’Dour values his roots too much to sell out for elusive crossover success. His second album for New York’s respected Nonesuch label adheres to a warm blend of cascading koras, thundering percussion and N’Dour’s exquisite vocals. Full of surprising depth and rich beauty.
