Description: Oumou Sangaré is the leading female artist from arguably Africa's, if not the world's, most productive musical nation: Mali in west Africa.  As a Wassoulou singer, she is unafraid to address issues that many, especially men, would rather left unsaid such as forced marriages.  Apart from being Mali's leading female voice, she is also a serial entrepreneur. She imports 4x4s (in Mali these are not a luxury for brainless suburbanites) and runs her own hotel in Bamako. She's also notable for her mile-wide philanthropic streak as we discover in the interview. Flyglobalmusic.com's Damian Rafferty and Ireland's DJ Nigel Wood were granted exclusive access to the star backstage at WOMAD 2009 in the UK.  You can also catch snippets of her set in our previous podcast, the WOMAD round up (video).
