About the Artist
BabsB is a third generation djembe drummer from Senegal, West Africa. For ten years he played bass, doungdoung, as part of a group called Africa Djembe Junior on his home island Goree- a 20 minute ferry ride off the coast from the capital of Dakar. Goree island has a richly horrific history, as it was from here slaves were shipped to the new world. Its history and infamous slave house museum with the “door of no return” brings thousands of tourists daily to the tiny island.
including US presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush
Babs from a very young age always loved music technology and making beats and with limited means, played around and practiced with various programs he could gain access to, though it wasn’t until he made it to the U.S. that he finally got the to study Mu Technology and Production in college, gaining the access and knowledge required to take advantage of professional programs and equipment.
He now produces straight out of his home studio as BabsBeatProductions, making instrumental beats which he refuses to box into a particular genre but are usually of fusion of hip hop, pop, reggae and world styles.
