Meet Ndeye Sokhna NDour, Birane NDour, St. Louis NDour, Venus NDour, Thioro NDour, Se

One of the most well-known musical figures to come from Africa is Youssou N’Dour.

He is regarded as one of the greatest African artists in history. He has a large international following thanks to his fusion of traditional Senegalese mbalax with diverse influences including Cuban rumba, hip hop, jazz, and soul.

Along with being an excellent singer, songwriter, musician, composer, occasional actor, and businessman, he is a wonderful politician who is also of Senegalese descent.

The 63-year-old Senegalese, who was reared on the streets of Dakar, has bestowed the world with a gift through his extraordinary musical talent.

The West African musician, humanitarian, and activist who is frequently credited as the father of modern Afro-pop was born in 1959 in the Medina district of Dakar, the capital of Senegal. Elimane N’Dour, a member of the Serer ethnic group, supported his family by working as a mechanic.

Ndeye Sokhna Mboup, a griot family member with Wolof ancestry, was Youssou’s mother. She is a griotte (also known as a gallo or jeli), and Youssou most likely drew heavily on the praise singers of his maternal heritage.

Who are Youssou N’Dour’s children?

After 17 years of marriage, Youssou N’Dour and his wife Mami Camara formally divorced since he is a Muslim and a member of the Mouride Brotherhood in Senegal. Collectively, they had four kids (Ndeye Sokhna N’Dour, Segui N’Dour, St. Louis N’Dour and Venus N’Dour).

Youssou N’Dour had two children from two different moms in his adolescence and before he wed Camara Mami: Birane N’Dour and Thioro N’Dour.
