BioJigeen Ñi, translated as "The Women" in Wolof, is an all-female orchestra based in Dakar, Senegal. Formed by five young Senegalese women, this unique ensemble blends rhythms from diverse ethnic backgrounds and genres, including Afro, blues, reggae, hip hop, jazz, Mbalah, salsa, and zouk. In a music industry dominated by men, Jigeen Ñi has fought hard to establish its presence to pave the way for other women in Senegal's music scene. Their mission extends beyond entertainment, as they use their music to promote social awareness and better citizenship.
