Based in Dakar, Senegal, Ibaaku is a composer, producer, multi-instrumentalist, author and radio show host who’s released several albums with his hip-hop collective I-Science.  His creativity explores genres from soul to jazz, all mixed with leftfield electro, as heard on his already cult album ‘Alien Cartoon‘ – a collaboration with fashion designer Selly Raby Kane who’s dressed Beyoncé amongst many others.
