Tchamantché

Genre : Album
Release date : Monday 19 may 2008
Principal country concerned : Column : Music

This may be an African album, but it sounds nothing like most'world music' records, and has little in common with work of Rokia's great Malian compatriots like Salif Keita or Oumou Sangare. It will appeal to blues fans, though it's not just a blues album, and it will appeal to fans to sophisticated contemporary rock, though Rokia's always thoughtful and intriguing lyrics are mostly sung in Bambara, one of the Malian languages, with just two in French.
