Beat Making Lab : "Gotal" An All Female Hip-Hop Crew From Dakar
Talented women rappers are still in abundance if you know where to look. Emcees such as Eternia, Rapsody, Jean Grae and Janelle Monae carry the torch for lovers of hip hop—like Harriet Tubman—in the underground. Meanwhile many popular media outlets choose to ignore their genius.
Unacceptable.
Recently, I have found myself in a unique position as a creator of content for a significant media outlet at PBS. I have the freedom collaborate on music, beats, and stories of my choosing, and I would like to hear more women's voices in hip hop. So in March, I traveled to Dakar, Senegal to build a studio with an amazing group of women called GOTAL.
GOTAL is a collective of Senegalese rappers, producers, singers and beat makers; who paired with a woman-led NGO called Speak Up Africa to write songs about global health issues in their communities. They made some incredible music, which I've been secretly banging in my iPod for two months. I'm proud to help unveil their work today. Stick around if you want to hear what Lauryn Hill would sound like if she spoke Wolof.

"The people need a female
rapper," says Toussa, the president of GOTAL; an all-women's collective of
Senegalese rappers, producers, singers and beat makers who paired with a
woman-led NGO called Speak Up Africa to write songs about global health issues
in their communities.
Developed at the University of
North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Beat Making Lab is a program that brings the
tools and techniques of digital music making to young musicians in developing
nations. Episodes documenting the experience in Senegal will air Wednesdays on
PBS Digital Studios' Beat Making Lab channel. Professor Pierce Freelon and
producer Apple Juice Kid host.
