But thanks to a certain liberal mindset and her family's slightly rootless existence (her father was a diplomat), Traore was able to pursue music with little parental opposition. And she got help from the bigwigs: Ali Farka Toure and Boubacar Traore, to name just two. After her first two albums <i>Mouneissa</i> and <i>Wanita</i>, Traore had garnered oodles of world music awards and acolades for her distinctive, airy-yet-substantial singing. - Sarah BardeenMalien720Fri, 27 Nov 2009 13:19:18 -0800 http://static.realone.com/rotw/images/logo_rhapsody_113x22.gif http://www.rhapsody.com/goto?rcid=art.32274&rws=%2Frokia-traore%2Ftop-tracks.rss Rokia Traore wasn't born into the griot caste -- her family were upperclass Bamanas in Mali.
