Our Take
Album: Angélique Kidjo - Celia In her latest offering, Beninese songstress Angélique Kidjo pays tribute to the one and only Celia Cruz, and boy does she make it her own. With a hybrid sound that effortlessly blends Afrobeat, salsa, and highlife, Kidjo takes us on a musical journey that is as bold and vibrant as the Cuban icon herself. From the infectious rhythms of "Quimbara" to the soul-stirring vocals on "La Vida Es Un Carnaval," Kidjo's voice is a force to be reckoned with, commanding attention and exuding charisma in every note. The arrangements are tight and expertly executed, with each instrument having its moment to shine without overpowering Kidjo's powerhouse vocals. The production on "Celia" is top-notch, with every track feeling both timeless and fresh. Kidjo's energy and passion are infectious, making it nearly impossible to sit still while listening to this album. And let's not forget the expertly curated guest features, including Tony Allen and Meshell Ndegeocello, who add even more depth and dimension to an already stellar project. In conclusion, Angélique Kidjo's "Celia" is a triumph in every sense of the word. She honours the legacy of Celia Cruz while simultaneously showcasing her own immense talent and creativity. This album is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates music that is as bold and fearless as it is joyous and celebratory. Bravo, Angélique, bravo.
