Bamako, 29 août 2021
The West African nation has gone through its fair share of struggles in the past year. From suffering through two coup d'états in the past nine months, alongside a controversial French airstrike killing twenty Malian civilians at a wedding, it has not been easy going for the country. These reasons were unofficially cited as being the primary factors behind Mali's scattered participation in the contest, with the country pulling in and out of whatever edition it chooses.
Fuel Fandango & Amadou & Mariam
Amadou & Mariam are a Malian duo that were born in the 1950s. The couple met at Mali's Institute for Blind Youth in the 1970s, after both Amadou and Mariam lost their vision in their youth. From there, they began making music after getting married in 1980, before moving to Abidjan in 1986. They resided there for ten years as their prominence on the global stage began to rise. 1996 saw the duo move to Paris, with their release two years later, "Je pense à toi" selling over 100,000 copies in France alone. This brought the pair to stardom, with their 2004 album reaching a peak of 2 in the French album charts. Having now released eight albums in a career which has spanned four decades, their work was recognised in a nomination for a Grammy in 2010 (Nicki Minaj could never). The pair have worked together with Spanish duo and Own Eurovision 56 participants Fuel Fandango on "Ruido" (English: Noise), the third single from Fuel Fandango's upcoming album Romances. The song was described as "a hug between Mali and Spain" and has a goal to make us think of "freedom, of a flight, of being able to get away from the noise of the world to find the light". Let's show Own Africavision what we're made of!

Own Africavision Song Contest 8Entry Submission Is ClosedUnfortunately, Sierra Leone failed to post about their entry. As such, Sierra Leone will face a 25% strike. With that, we will have 48 nations participating. The PQR that was planned will be disregarded. We will have 21 nations participating in both semi finals. More information about the edition will be released in the upcoming days.
