Massamba Diop is perhaps the world's most renowned master of the Tama, a talking drum from Senegal, West Africa. Over the past 40 years Massamba has been playing all over the world with Senegalese super-star Baaba Maal. Massamba has also performed and/or recorded with the likes of James Brown, Carlos Santana, Herbie Hancock, Harry Belafonte and Angelique Kidjo. Most recently, Massamba has received much acclaim for his collaboration on Marvel's Black Panther soundtrack, providing the drumming for King Tchalla's theme music, heard throughout the film whenever the title character makes an entrance and has a cameo appearance in Wakanda Forever.
