Senegalese pop star Baaba Maal's Firin' in Fouta has been nom-
inated for a 1996 Grammy. Imbuing both the timeless Fulani mu-
sical traditions with the musical cutting edge of contemporary
Western music, it's been said that his "piercing voice is the con-
stant [of his music], a soaring and inspirational cry that unites
soul ... and blues, among other styles, into a seamless, moving
whole." Catch him 8 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 27; $13.50. Majestic The-
atre, 4140 Woodward, Detroit. (313) 833-0120.
