About Toure Toure
Toure Toure is an Afro-pop band from Senegal, headed by cousins Omar Toure on percussion and vocals and Daby Toure on guitar, who in turn are related to the leaders of Toure Kunda, the Senegalese band that helped in the beginnings of the current world music craze. Rounding out the roster are Michel Alibo on bass, Celia Rogiani on keyboards, and Thierry Vaton on drums. Toure Toure attempts to combine the basic sounds of their home of Casamance with the slicker forms of Parisian Afro-pop studio editing. They released their first album, Ladde, on Tinder and toured in support of it. ~ Adam Greenberg, All Music Guide

So What P!nk |
| The original girl kisser and full-time naughty star gets back to form, after her last album nearly flopped in the States. It was saved by the last minute success of the reissued single "Who Knew." Her new effort, "Funhouse," looks destined to enjoy a much healthier commercial career and reconquer P!nk's dominant position among today's pop-rock divas, starting with a bang: in just a few days, "So What,", a frantic glam rock tune whose vengeful lyrics are supposed to be about her recent divorce from motocross champ Carey Hart, has already established itself as one of her biggest hits to date and is also P!nk's first solo U.S. chart topper; an unexpectedly happy ending, crowned by the appearance of Hart in its video. | |
