Rokia Traoré's rise through the world music ranks from promising newcomer to fully-fledged star has been a meteoric one. Born into a well-educated Malian family, her father was a diplomat. That meant postings abroad, so that early on Rokia was able to absorb different cultures. She got to see different parts of the world from a young age including the US, the Middle East and Europe.
With her first two albums, Rokia Traoré established herself as West Africa's most exciting and precocious new talent.
