At 60 years of age and with a career spanning almost 50 years, Amadou & Mariam have established themselves as the ultimate ambassadors of Afro pop. And here they are again with new single “Mogolu”, as always a breath of fresh air thanks to their trademark joyful creativity.
A mixture of infectious danceable Afro-beat rhythms and hypnotic melodies, of tradition and modernity, of organic and electronic sounds, carried by Mariam’s heavenly vocals, “Mogolu” delightfully taps into everything that is magical and powerful about such irresistible hits as “Je Pense À Toi”, “Sabali”, “Mon Chéri” and “Bofou Safou”. Mogolu, which means ‘people’ in Bambara, is a celebration of human encounters, travels and diversity, echoing the duo’s long-standing commitment to peace, as well as a powerful invitation to dance. It is a guaranteed toe-tapper that will have people shaking wildly under the sun.
