Amma became the first African American female Akpon to produce a musical recording of the traditional songs, titled Alaako Oso: Owner of the Songs is Eloquent. Sought after to lead Bembes throughout the U.S. and the Caribbean she preserves the traditional songs of Yoruba and helps participants connect with the history and spiritual context of the tradition.
