Youssou continues a griot storytelling tradition passed on by his grandmother, and comes to focus on his decision to compose Egypt, a deeply spiritual album as an expression of his Islamic faith.?This brave musical message was embraced by Western audiences but initially ignited controversy in his homeland.
