Tiken Jah Fakoly in concert at La Merise in Trappes

The Merises from hatches (Yvelines) receives the December 11, 2022 singer The bitch Jah Fakoly as part of her tour for her 11th^And album, Power stroke.

The reggae singer from the Ivory Coast continues his tireless fight for Africa with this album.

I wrote most of this album during the pandemic, on a farm 45km from Bamako. The struggle is not over: I have many dreams, some of which will not come true in my lifetime. But it is still progressing, strengthened by social networks. Africans are smarter today than yesterday. There is a beginning of awakening even if there are still many things to do.

Grand Corps Sick, Amadou and Mariam, etc.

In this 11^And album, Tiken Jah Fakoly notably collaborated with Great Sick Bodyon the first title, street child. “I really like his music, his flow, his lyrics and the actions of him in his neighborhood,” confides Tiken Jah Fakoly who also collaborated with Amadou and Mariam for the title. Don’t worry and with Winston McAnuff for I can hear. “Exchanges between artists”.

On a frantic forced march pace, Tiken Jah Fakoly asks questions Where are you going ?to tell a certain African youth magnetized by the north of the compass that “the crossing is dangerous”.

In Religion, the singer just hammers out that she should be cool, that she can’t be crazy. The title is punctuated into a trance by the “kambélé ngoni”, a 5-tone Mandinka guitar.

Government 20 egalready heard in single, ends up ridiculing those who passed to the constitutional forceps.

So everything contains it, Africa obviously, he takes for his rank. colonizedhis rhythm, his call-and-response game with a male choir, his long list of African and Afro-descendant heroes, his Franc-Bambara (mixture of French and Bambara) closes the album in the purest Fakolian style.
