About Queen Biz
Artist Biography
A Senegalese singer and songwriter with a bright, warm vocal tone, Queen Biz navigates acoustic pop, reggae, and R&B, among other influences. Her breakthrough came in 2014 with her first album, Maux Croisés. She releases songs in English, French, and Wolof as well has her first language, Mandinka.
Coumba Diallo began singing as a teenager and has cited Lauryn Hill as a primary inspiration. She formed the group Lions Clan with two friends while in college, and they toured regionally as she completed her bachelor's degree. Diallo later joined Khelcom International, and when that group disbanded, she decided to make music on her own.
After earning multiple graduate degrees in the area of international law and diplomacy, she released the Queen Biz debut single, "Wallou," in 2014. It was a hit, as was her first album, the same year's Maux Croisés. In the meantime, she performed internationally, including a concert at the United Nations Headquarters in New York. Queen Biz delivered her second album, Puissance 3, in 2019. ~ Marcy Donelson
