what makes sona great and well accepted is that she's mix race and still keep her African root in fact addresses herself Gambian while born and raised in England. which is very rare among the Africans born in west. I will say thanks @sona for been proud of who you are the frand child of Kunta kinteh.
Yeah that's true. The ambition and dedication us exploring in her, she can't stop learning more about her roots and share it with the rest of the globe.
thanks cnn for making a program with this beautiful musician, since then I have listen and bought her music to my ipod. I am brazilian so so proud of my african heritage also that is why brazilian music are so beautiful we have a foot in africa! PARABENS! you are briliant!
dappo sijuwade how is that unusual? Gambians are known for intermarriage obviously her fathers a gambian and shes expressing her culture through music. Gambians are open minded people. In Gambia there is no such thing as just marrying into a certain tribe or ethnicity.
