Amaal

About the artist

The fourth of ten children, Amaal began her remarkable journey in war-torn Mogadishu, where her family lived until they were forced to flee as refugees in the early 1990s. Starting in Toronto, she embraced the poetic nature of her culture but bristled at the conservative customs that came with it, particularly the repressive expectations placed upon women. As a teenager, Amaal had grown bold enough to begin making her own music, but she still felt limited as to what she could sing about
