Angelique Kidjo Interview: Director: Amnesty and Music for Human Rights | Genre: Documentary | Produced In: 2008

Synopsis: The Grammy-winning Angelique Kidjo is surly Afropop's diva supreme. She has fearlessly combined Western pop genres with African influences, and with every disc her work just seems to get stronger. She has also been a champion of women's rights worldwide, been a UNICEF ambassador, and worked for OXFAM. In this interview she blames the problem of the world on big business and the heartless pursuit of profit.
