Festival International Nuits d’Afrique : Djely Tapa à la scène TD

Fri 18 Jul 2025 • 06:00 pm Africa / Blues / Jazz
Scène TD - Montréal Gratuit
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

“Sans même comprendre les paroles de ses chansons, on devine que son propos est fort, ancré dans une volonté d’être utile et de faire avancer les choses” (La Presse, 2024). Sa voix puissante et haut-perchée, majestueuse, son débit incandescent et son geste élégant en font une artiste incontournable, la nouvelle voix internationale de la musique mandingue. Descendante d’une illustre famille de griots (elle est la fille de la célèbre Kandia Kouyaté), la lauréate de plusieurs prix Juno, dont celui de l’album de musique globale 2025, explore un langage tourné sur le monde et vers l’avenir, qui fait la synthèse de son héritage et de ses aspirations afro-futuristes, dans un univers où les rythmes traditionnels côtoient le blues malien et l’électro. Tantôt aériens, tantôt dangereusement dansants, ses récits, qui rendent hommage à la femme et à l’africanité, sont chargés de métaphores et empreints de sagesse. Le dernier album de celle qui a collaboré avec Tiken Jah Fakoly et Vieux Farka Touré, Dankoroba, a été publié en 2024 sous l’étiquette Disques Nuits d’Afrique.

“Without even understanding her lyrics, you can tell she has a strong message, rooted in a desire to be useful and to make a difference” (La Presse, 2024). This is one artist you won’t want to miss! With her powerful, majestic voice, at times reaching a fiery pitch, her impassioned delivery and graceful gestures, Djely Tapa has become the new voice of mandinka music. Daughter of the celebrated Kandia Kouyaté, Djely descends from a long line of illustrious griots and has earned several Juno awards, including for Global Music Album of the Year, 2025. Through her music, she explores a language that looks outwards and towards the future, synthesizing her heritage and afro-futuristic aspirations in a universe where traditional rhythms mingle with Malian blues and electro. At times ethereal, at others dangerously danceable, her songs, which pay homage to women and to Africanness, are loaded with metaphor and imbued with wisdom. She has collaborated with the likes of Tiken Jah Fakoly and Vieux Farka Touré, who also features on her 2024 album Dankoroba (Disques Nuits d’Afrique).

CE SPECTACLE EST GRATUIT!
