Hussain Dada is one of The Gambia鈥檚 most popular rappers, drawing crowds of more than 20,000 people to his concerts. He comes from a devout Muslim family which did not approve of music, but he was determined to use his talent.

Hussain Dada says his lyrics are mostly about guiding and motivating young people. In his opinion, too many young Gambians would rather believe in a dream of prosperity abroad rather than staying home and working hard to build good lives in their own country.

Despite his nickname, Badboy, Hussain is also partnering with a charity called Binti which focuses on empowering young women. He says more openness is needed when it comes to speaking out about women鈥檚 health and wellbeing, and he is keen to break taboos that keep women and girls in ignorance.
