AFTER HER GRAMMY- AND VICtoires de la Musique-NOMINATED ALBUM FENFO, HER PARTICIPATION IN THE -M- LAMOMALI PROJECT (2018 VICTOIRES DE LA MUSIQUE AWARD), AND SUCCESSFUL INTERNATIONAL COLLABORATIONS (GORILLAZ, DISCLOSURE…), ONE OF AFRICA’S GREATEST VOICES UNVEILS HER NEW ALBUM, “LONDON KO.”
With this new album, Fatoumata Diawara continues to push boundaries, be they geographical (as the album title, a fusion of London and Bamako, suggests) or artistic, successfully achieving a perfect reconciliation between synthetic sounds and traditional Malian rhythms. An immersion into an eclectic and resolutely avant-garde universe.
