Specialist in the realization of video clips, Grand Poucet, is a name, a reference, a model, even, a spirit. A name which, a priori, would make you think of a European, is none other than that of a young native Ivorian. Charles Kouamé, it is about him.
A native of the Gbêkê region, Charles Kouamé, alias Grand Poucet, has imposed on himself a rigor at work. After his training in Europe, specifically in England, it does not happen day or night that he is not asked to produce clips of the names of the artists who flock to his table in his production structure.
In Abidjan, as in the sub-region, Grand Poucet is not idle, because always left for the realization of clips, short and feature films, reality TV films, etc. This is how we will see it in Mali, Guinea-Conakry, Equatorial Guinea, Burkina Faso, Benin, Togo, South Africa, Ghana, Nigeria, Cameroon, Niger, Chad, etc.
The fame he derives comes from his talent in directing, but this notoriety comes from what he can do with certain television channels, in particular the promotion of the clips made.
Fally Ipupa, Koffi Olomidé, Sidiki Diabaté, Kamaldine, J Martins, the Bosses, Jean Jacques Kouamé, Alpha Blondy, Amy Bamba, Kerry James, Zaho are all celebrities that Charles Kouamé boosts. Without however forgetting those of Jamaica, in the United States.
