Free Music Notes for Missing You (Mi Yeewnii)
Free Music Review: Exquisite
Hit: 5 Stars
This is Baaba Maal at his finest - not in a hyped, multi-producer track featuring guests who add nothing. No, this is Baaba Maal acoustic. His voice ricochets around you - its pure sound just enveloping you. The kora, balafon and drums on the disc are also perfect. Baaba Maal is, indeed, one of the greatest band leaders and composers of our time. Don't get me wrong, I love his electric band too. But, with Mi Yeewnii, Baaba Maal and his acoustic group gives you roots music at its most affecting and exquisite.Free Music Review: Another brilliant CD
Hit: 5 Stars
I am very familiar with Baaba Maal's music as I spent 2.5 years living in the Fouta Djallon region of Guinea, West Africa. His ability to fill his music (both instrumental and vocal) with strong emotion and passion is unsurpassed in this latest release. He has a unique talent of making you smile or weep during a single song. Most of the songs are sung in Pular which blends so well with the accoustic setting of this CD. A MUST buy if you appreciate emotional African music.Free Music Review: This is a gorgeous collection of songs

If you like Baaba Maal, you will love this disc. If you have never heard Baaba Maal but like African music, you will at least like this disc. If you have never heard West African music before, buy this disc. It is beautifully rich, acoustic, soulful, celebratory, sad, mesmerizing and although I can't speak a word of whatever language Baaba Maal uses (and he uses more than one) I try to sing along nevertheless. I think this is Baaba Maal at his best.Free Music Review: Baaba Maal and Company do it again....

Here Baaba gives us another acoustic CD that you can listen for hours. The second track "miyaabele" is a masterpiece. It combines several instruments from different, but related, musical traditions creating "panafrican" tunes that also say a lot to non-african listeners.This CD together with Baayo and Djam Leelii are three of the best acoustic records of African music.
