Sam'sk Lejah on tour through three concerts played in Gaoua, Diebougou and Dano, Burkina Faso, in March 2015. After the 2014 revolution in Burkina Faso, Sam'sk Lejah, activist and reggae singer, goes on tour with his group, facing a long and tiring trip to the most distant villages of Burkina Faso, to bring his music and his revolutionary message. He communicates and transmits Sankarist thought through his songs, but above all he meets the feeling of a Burkina Faso youth on the fringes, who needs to be listened and addressed.
