Cheikh Ahmadou Bamba (Wolof: Aamadu Bamba Mbàkke, Arabic: أحمد بن محمد بن حبيب الله Aḥmad ibn Muḥammad ibn Ḥabīb Allāh, 1850–1927)[1] also known as Khādimu 'r-Rasūl (خادِم الرسول) or "The Servant of the Messenger" and Sëriñ Tuubaa or "Sheikh of Tuubaa", was a Sufi religious leader in Senegal and the founder of the large Mouride Brotherhood (the Muridiyya).
Ahmadou Bamba was a religious leader who produced a prodigious quantity of poems and tracts on meditation, rituals, work, and Quranic study. He led a pacifist struggle against the French colonial empire while not waging outright war on the French like several prominent Tijani marabouts had done.
I'm kind of glad that Sheck Wes dropped Mo Bamba. Imagine what it would be like for someone looking for a mindless, soulless (albeit kind of catchy) trap song to accidentally stumble upon this beautiful creation. I'm glad some people are discovering this.
I heard this on BBC World Service, I,m totally entranced by this song. Even though I do not understand a single word of it. Total bliss, it is sumptuous to listen to. Thank you.x
