From generations of griots, comes a messenger for our time – Youssou N’Dour.
I BRING WHAT I LOVE takes you behind the scenes and into the world of Africa’s most famous musician, Youssou N’Dour, at a turning point in his life and career, as he releases his most personal and controversial album Egypt. But the singer’s hope for a more tolerant face of Islam erupts in scandal and outrage in his native country Senegal, that rejects the album and denounces it as blasphemous.
