Adam Tensta has opened up for such artists as Jay-Z, Rihanna, Busta Rhymes, Jazzy Jeff, Beatnuts, Musiq Soulchild and Flo-Rida. Being on the same stage as one of the absolutely biggest artists in the world, Youssou N'Dor, is something else though. Adam grew up listening to Youssou N'Dor through his parents who are both huge fans of his music and being able to meet Youssou in person, perform infront of his fans in his home town is one of his biggest accoplishments as an artists so far.
Youssou N'Dour on Wikipedia >>>
Youssou N'Dour (born October 1, 1959 in Dakar) is a Senegalese singer and percussionist. In 2004, Rolling Stone described him as, in Senegal and much of Africa, "perhaps the most famous singer alive."[1] He helped develop popular music in Senegal, known in the Wolof language as mbalax, a blend of the country's traditional griot percussion and praise-singing with the Afro-Cuban and Haitian kompa arrangements and flavors which made the return trip from the Caribbean to West Africa in the 1940s, 50s, and 60s and have flourished in West Africa ever since.
