The music of the group is based on the traditional music of Fuuta Tooro (the semi-desertic region of the Senegal river) and features a mix between the hapulaar's melodies and instruments and european harmonies and instruments. This melting pot is however done with respect to the original music, and one will recognize easily the Yella, Naale or Ripo (the traditional rhythms of the Fuuta) as well as the graceful and arab-like melody that is typical of the region.

Malick's lyrics are about the need to defend halpulaar culture, the hardship of exile out of Africa, nostalgia of home, the fate of political resistants in Mauritania, tributes to various famous men in Senegal (such as Cheikh Amadou Bamba or Baydi Kacce ) etc
