Meklit Honors Her Roots With An Impassioned Rendition Of "Ambassel" | Global Spin
21Born in Ethiopia and raised in the United States, Meklit blends her musical talents with her passion for cultural strategy. Her Global Spin performance of "Ambassel," a traditional Amharic love song, reflects her enthusiasm for both.
She'll continue to embed Ethiopian traditions into her music with A Piece of Infinity, her forthcoming new album, which includes "Abebayehosh," a traditional Ethiopian New Year's song that she released on Ethiopian New Year's Day.
