In Dakar, Aminata Thiam, Senegal's first female beatmaker, is pioneering a movement to uplift women in the country's flourishing hip-hop scene. By teaching beatmaking exclusively to women, she aims to create a space for female voices in music, a field historically dominated by men. Despite the challenges of technology access among women, Thiam is determined to equip her students with the skills necessary to succeed and inspire more women to engage in the music industry.
