about
group from Niamey, Niger. Formed in 2002 by Aziz Tony, Bachou Issouf, and Salif André, Mamaki Boys was part of the digital cultural renaissance of the beginning of the decade. Their traditional village music was gradually transformed into local, rhythmically-driven, underground hip-hop. The genre was becoming more and more present in the capital of their native country, at a time when DIY studios were sprouting up and flourishing in West Africa.
