Since 2004, after Idrissa Soumaoro, a Malian artist hasn\u2019t win the prize. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The 10 finalists of the 2017 edition of the RFI Discovery Award are now known. Since 1981, this award has highlighted young African talented artists. Among its winners are some of the great musicians, including Tiken Jah Fakoly, Rokia Traor\u00e9, Didier Awadi, and Amadou and Mariam. This year, Mali has two standard bearers, Ami Y\u00e9r\u00e8wolo and M&#8217;bouill\u00e9 Koit\u00e9.<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/c0SGC5p6y14\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><br \/>\nBorn Ami Daniogo, the rapper from Boulkassoumbougou, a popular neighborhood of Bamako, is best known for being a great slayer of discrimination against women in the hip-hop microcosm in Mali, where she has been playing for more than 7 years. Joined by <em>Sahelien.com<\/em>, she made no secret of her desire to win the prize <em>\u00abto make young women understand that one can realize one\u2019s dream\u00bb.<\/em> In 2014, she released her album <em>Naissance<\/em>, which she said portends the birth of the female rap in Mali. Another prowess of this rap amazon, with the oscillating style between rap and trap, is the organization of the contest \u00abLe Mali a des rappeuses\u00bb, to allow talented girls wanting rap to make themselves known.<br \/>\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BWtg6GrkXUo\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>If Ami Y\u00e8r\u00e8wolo is a great rap lady, M&#8217;bouill\u00e9 Koit\u00e9 also is not however small. The pieces of this young griot make fury, as much for the lyrics as for the devilish notes of Kora, which stick well with his voice loaded with a magic force. In Mogo Kan, now on all radios in Bamako, he warns against the \u00abhear sayings\u00bb, the oldest media in Malian society.<\/p>\n<p>These two young artists will defend the colors of Mali and will be subject, with the 8 other finalists, to the vote of the jury chaired this year by the singer of French R &amp; B, Singuila, after the vote of the public which will stop the October 29. RFI awards the prize-winner a tour in Africa, a concert in Paris and 10 000 Euros.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The 10 finalists 2017 <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Ay\u00f4d\u00e9l\u00e9<\/strong> &#8211; Benin\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u2022 <strong>OMG<\/strong> &#8211; Senegal<\/li>\n<li><strong>Willy Baby<\/strong> &#8211; Togo\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u2022 <strong>Prince Mo<\/strong> &#8211; Togo<\/li>\n<li><strong>M&#8217;bouill\u00e9 Koit\u00e9<\/strong> &#8211; Mali\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u2022 <strong>Sarro<\/strong> &#8211; Senegal<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lab&#8217;l<\/strong> &#8211; Cameroon\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u2022 <strong>SO-S Def<\/strong> &#8211; Guinea<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hans Nayna<\/strong> &#8211; Mauritius\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 \u2022 <strong>Ami Yerewolo<\/strong> &#8211; Mali<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<a  class=\"vc_btn vc_btn-black vc_btn-sm vc_btn_square \" href=\"#\">Sidi Ahmed S.<\/a>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Two young artists represent Mali at the 37th edition of the RFI Discovery Award: M&#8217;bouill\u00e9 Koit\u00e9 and Ami Y\u00e8r\u00e8wolo.
