Ep. 100: Fou Malade: Hip Hop, Resistance, and the Making of a New African

Saison 2 · Épisode 100

lundi 21 juillet 2025 • Durée 16:02

This episode is from a 2024 interview with Malal Talla—better known as Fou Malade—a legendary figure in Senegalese hip hop and co-founder of the activist collective Y’en a Marre. A key voice in Senegal's social and political landscape, Fou Malade shares his journey from early musical influences and socially conscious lyricism to organizing protests and grassroots mobilization through music.

In the interview, we explore:

His early days as an MC influenced by Pan-Africanism, figures like Kwame Nkrumah and Thomas Sankara, and groups like Positive Black Soul
The evolution of Senegalese hip hop from political consciousness to mainstream commercialization
The rise and impact of Y’en a Marre and its influence across Africa, including his arrest in the DRC
How governments have tried to co-opt or silence politically engaged hip hop movements
The role of hip hop festivals in fostering Pan-African artistic and political collaboration
His vision for a “new type of African”—one rooted in ethics, activism, and social responsibility

Whether you’re into hip hop, social movements, or Pan-African politics, this episode offers a powerful look into how culture can be used to inspire change across the continent.

Saison 2

jeudi 17 juillet 2025 • Durée 05:32

We are back after a 1-year hiatus. It was difficult to maintain the production schedule as it was, so we will be scaling down a lot. We will continue to release conversations about Hip Hop in Africa and the African diaspora.

Our first episode back will be an interview with Senegalese hip hop artist and co-founder of the activist collective Y’en a Marre, Malal, aka Fou Malade. He is a major voice in Senegal's social and political landscape. Fou Malade shares his journey from musical influences and lyricism to organizing protests and grassroots mobilization through music. This includes his role in the Y’en a Marre movement and his arrest in the Congo in 2015.

Over the next couple of weeks, we will also be posting two bonus episodes, a podcast, and a mixtape created by students in the Hip Hop & Social Change in Africa class. Additional student mixtapes & podcasts can be found on hiphopafrican.com. This year, gender and the African diaspora were major themes in the projects.

The mixtape The Sound of the Diaspora: Identity and Resistance in African Hip Hop, features the following songs

“Becky” by Amine (Eritrea and Ethiopia)
“Hello Africa” by Blitz The Ambassador (Ghana)
“Never Fight an African” by Styles P (South Africa and Jamaica)
“Sue Me” by Wale (Nigeria)

In the podcast Unapologetic: African Women in Hip-Hop, two student hosts discuss the power behind the works of several artists, including Ghana’s Eno Barony, South Africa’s Gigi Lamayne, Uganda’s Keko, and Nigeria’s Reespect. The hosts like how these women aren’t waiting for permission to speak, but are taking the mic and making space for themselves.

“It’s not just a career move, it’s a statement”.Unapologetic: African Women in Hip-HopTweet

Again, the podcast will continue to post interviews and conversations around hip hop in Africa and the African world. The goal is to return to the monthly format, with shorter episodes, less than 20 minutes. This is more sustainable. On our website, we will continue to feature additional content and press releases, including information on hip hop events, releases, and news.

HHAP 91: Hip Hop in Africa and the African Diaspora with Toni Blackman

Saison 1 · Épisode 91

lundi 1 janvier 2024 • Durée 00:00

Toni at Howard University with Howard University and George Washington University students in the Hip Hop in Africa class

This episode is a sit-down conversation with Toni Blackman. Toni is an artist, hip-hop activist, writer, and cultural ambassador. She holds the distinction of being the first hip-hop ambassador to the U.S. State Department, and her work has had a significant impact on the global perception of hip-hop.

She has decades of experience in the U.S. and throughout Africa. She is one of the most well-traveled and experienced hip-hop artists out there and her work has earned her recognition and respect in hip-hop communities around the world.

We met up at the King Fahd Hotel in Dakar, Senegal this past December to talk about her work and to get her thoughts on hip-hop culture globally and the implications of changes in the industry for hip-hop artists. She talks about the idea of “conscious capitalism" and artists balancing art, business, and social impact.

You can make money and make social impact at the same time… I want more artists to know that and understand that.

She also talks about the relationships between hip-hop artists in the Diaspora and hip-hop artists in Africa and offers advice for both. As an artist and activist dedicated to promoting the positive impact of hip-hop and mindfulness, she is recognized for her innovative work and contributions to hip-hop culture. She inspires and engages audiences through her art, education, and social entrepreneurship. Toni Blackman has left an indelible mark on the world of music and cultural diplomacy.

Music and art play a functional role in the lives of people of African descent.
