Cross-Culture Recitals with Artablities 4 All Artiste Aqeel Masinja

Meet Artabilities 4 All artist Aqeel Masinja from Malawi, East Africa!

Aqeel was born in Lilongwe. Although he was the first person in his family born with albinism and having faced many challenges while in school and the society, Aqeel discovered his musical talents.

He wrote his first song when he was six years old. By 12, he stepped into the studio where he recorded a song he wrote about albinism and the society in an effort to bring about awareness about the condition- that it can be disabling in addition to asking for acceptance.

Albinism not only can cause visual problems but also extreme skin sensitivity to the sun. Aqeel also suffers from near sightedness as a result.

Aqeel has been affected a lot by these disabilities and had been educating folks on discrimination of people affected by albinism.

His first album was titled THE TRUTH (about Albinism) and received great reviews and he has been featured in leading newspapers in Malawi (The Nation news paper and on Malawi News Agency)

He has also performed on the Mr. And Ms Albinism Malawi 2019
