REVIEWS
There is an unmistakable familial, handed-down feel to the music. Boubacar’s lead vocals are equal parts balladeer and muezzin and the melodies have the right mix of hypnotic repetition and unhinged lilt. Not a lot of sugar coating as far as productions goes, and none needed. The music is naturally sweet, showcasing Diébaté’s expertise in bringing the kora back to its roots. -Tom Orr, Worldmusicportal.com
Boubacar Diébaté’s music is an exciting crush of Western and African musical influences, slammed together in a beautiful mush. The end result is wild and unpredictable, a clash of culture which is more than memorable. Absolutely brilliant. -Mish Mash Music Reviews
The music that is generated is rhythmic, folky and beautiful. A powerful and captivating sound. -Robbie Oyugi, Ujama News
