Album Review
Angelique Kidjo's fifth album Fifa saw the artist experimenting further with the Western genres of soul and pop, resulting in her most mainstream record to date. As evidenced by "Naima," the stunning collaboration with Carlos Santana, Kidjo's instincts for pairing African rhythms and Western structures are inspired. Other highlights include "Wombo Lombo," "The Sound of the Drums," and "Shango." Unfortunately, Fifa proved to be a marketing challenge in the United States, and this melodic and rhythmic Kidjo record remains hard to find and largely undiscovered. A wonderful release.
Customer Reviews
Simply Sublime!
Anyone who doesn't like the melody and fantastic music on this album needs to STOP listening to music period! Still my all time favourite Angelique album to date. It's just SO good! 5* Wish people would open their minds more and just truly listen. This is THE ish!
angelique rocks!
I first heard this cd 10 years or more ago...still sounds just as fresh and energetic today as it did then. I saw her perform live in a small venue in Princeton Nj, she rocked the house! The music is lively, positive, hum-able and danceable. Nice upbeat music for any occasion from a sincere and talented muscian.
Fantastic
Angelique Kidjo's albums are ever-evolving and she never disappoints me.
