Askala Selassie
In this edition of DDB we check in with The Warrior Empress, Askala Selassie. Starting out on sound systems, Askala got her big break by supporting The Wailers on their European tour.

Askala has performed alongside the likes of Sugar Minott, Etana, Chronixx, Rita Marley, Luciano, Queen Ifrica and Alborosie among others.
