All Genres > World > African > NASER: Sokay

Naser was born in Kpatuo, Nimba County, Liberia. She is a songwriter and singer who presently resides in Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA.

As a young girl, Naser played hand drums for her mother, who sang to entertain the family. She played anything (from empty tin cans, plastic buckets to hollow woods or sticks) she could get her hands on.

Naser performs a style of music called Kolor, a rhythm filled sounds with upbeat mood, typical of the Dan and Man tribes of northeastern Liberia. Her specialty within the Kolor style is the sub genre called Sokay which generally addresses family cohesiveness.

Naser released her debut CD called "Sokay," in the United States in 1998. In 2000, she completed a joint project "Rally Time" with her husband, Jake D.
