New album, Being, is a powerful continuation of his pioneering, transcendent work over the last forty years blending the ancient and the modern. Continuing his exciting partnership with Johan Hugo, it was recorded in Brooklyn, London and Senegal and confirms Maal's position as one of the most uniquely compelling musicians in the world. About Being, Baaba says; "Each song of this album has its own personality, which is something that I always want in a record, songs that all have really strong personality. Because for me, a song is like a person. It has a life, it has a name, it has a character, and it has a position in life. And I think what makes this album so powerful is that it is totally about now, and where I am now, and the dreams I have of the past and the future."
