Jeune artiste poète slameur chanteur rappeur d'Abomey Bénin 🇧🇯

Music including some short original compositions and piano covers.


I live in Toronto, Canada.

Musicien sur scène (piano-keyboard) dans divers groupes de World-Music tout au long des années 90's : Musiques afro-antillaises et musiques des îles du Cap-Vert, je trouve mon inspiration dans les riches ambiances sonores et visuelles découvertes lors de mes nombreux voyages : Le Gabon, L'île de la Réunion, l'archipel des îles du Cap-Vert, mais aussi, Boston, Rotterdam, Frankfort, Stockholm, le Festival de Jazz de Lugano,...

J'ai colllaboré en studio sur des albums avec différents artistes : Anne-Marie Delès "Réserve naturelle" (chanson française), Fred'D Lima, Elisio Gomez, Remix de Cesaria Evora, le groupe CaboVerdeShow (Musique des îles du Cap-Vert), Billy Dikossas (Makossa-Cameroun), Alain Belloc "Eternity" (World-Music)...

L'univers musical de mes compositions se situent au croisement de la musique Électro et de la World-Music. Styles dans lesquels j'aime me plonger via des arrangements et des mélodies façonnées et colorées comme une envie de voyage et l'envie de vous faire partager mes voyages.

Tantôt "planant", tantôt "Rythmique", tantôt sonorités acoustiques ou électroniques, de cette alchimie ressort tout simplement une invitation à voyager en musique.

I upload every once in a blue moon, but it’s some heat!!!
