From our album Héritage, the song “Norou” features the amazing @RokiaKoneMusic. There was a real family atmosphere in the studio that day & the golden voice of Rokia was the icing on the cake. Her power tore up this song & amazed us. Thank you for sharing this moment, Rokia ❤️

Petit Adama est Multi-instrumentiste et l'un des plus grands joueurs de Djembé en Afrique de l'ouest et au Mali. Il s'est lustré depuis son jeune âge et accompagne beaucoup de grandes figures de la musique Malienne comme Kandi, Babani Koné etc…

The instrument he plays, the djembé, originated in West Africa, particularly the Mandé, which gave its name to present-day Mali. This instrument, to which Adama Diarra holds the secret , accompanies all kinds of festive events at home.

This instrument was first recorded in the studio in the 1980s. For our album Héritage we simply couldn't achieve what we wanted without this instrument.

Par ailleurs cet instrument (djembé) apparaît le milieu de musique enregistré en studio dans les années 1980. Et dans notre album Héritage nous ne pouvons tout simplement pas manquer un tel instrument.

Over the past few years, through the pandemic and many other challenges here in Mali, we were able to craft a collection of music that is very close to our hearts & souls. Héritage represents the sound of us reconnecting with the spirit of our Malian culture.

Amis… Nous vous présentons notre chanson “Dagabi” de ‘Héritage’. Dagabi signifie ‘hypocrite’. Nous espérons voir un jour un monde sans Dagabi. Il y a un adage africain qui dit : Grattons ce qui nous pique Alors, éloignons-nous de ceux qui nous divisent.

Friends… We present our song “Dagabi” from ‘Héritage’. Dagabi means ‘hypocrite’. We hope to see a world without Dagabi one day. There is an african adage that says: “Let’s scratch what itches” So, let’s move away from those who divide us.
