'''''Man''''' is the third solo [[album]] by [[Sweden|Swedish]] singer [[Neneh Cherry]], released in 1996. The album was a reasonable success; however, the track which ironically does not fit in the overall feeling of the album and often feels like the odd song out, "7 Seconds", became a hit. This track was a duet with [[Youssou N'Dour]], a famous [[Senegal]]ese singer who helped make the musical style ''[[mbalax]]'' popular in [[Africa]], and in a way this duet was an introduction of this style to Europe and the United States. Cherry was nominated for a [[Grammy]] in 1994 for the duet.
