Following the release of his track “Mamalé”, we caught up with the talented artist known for his blend of funk, soul, and gospel sounds.
– What inspired you to write “Mamalé”, and what message do you hope listeners take away from the song?
I was inspired by my own story, growing with my mom, after my dad past away , I wanted to celebrate all the moms , because they are the back bone of each families . Being a dad today, I wanted show in this song particularily in the clip video , how important it is for a kid to a father figure in his life. The message shared is positivity, love and that , We should cherish life and the people around us .
– Your music seamlessly blends different influences. Can you tell us a bit about your musical background and how different genres have shaped your sound?
I was influenced by Afrobeat growing up in Africa, my dad love s Fella Kuti , when we moved to Canada I discovered soul , Rn’b , gospel with folk music , growing up listening to artist like Steve wonder , Boyz to men , Éric Clapton and singing in a gospel choir had a big influence in my music and shaped it definitely!
– How does it feel to see your music resonate with listeners around the world, and what do you think sets this track apart from your previous work?
I’m humble and amazed, let’s say that English is not my daily language meaning that I’m surrended by French speaking language, I decided to write in English and that gave me more possibilities and allow my music to travel to more places that I could have never imagine
