Nuits d’Afrique | El Gato Negro, The Sound of Subtropical Pop

Interview by Keithy Antoine
Genres and styles : Hip Hop / Jazz / Pop

Additional Information

Montreal label Cosmovision Records welcomes El Gato Negro, the singer and multi-instrumentalist who has taken to the road and built a bohemian life for himself, creating a sound that fluctuates between subtropical pop, traditional from all over, jazz and hip hop, all stamped with a digital signature. The latest album from this Manu Chao pal, Tigre qui pleure (2024), on which Orchestra Baobab and Cucurucho Valdés collaborated, codifies cumbia, salsa, soukous, bolero and afrotrap beats. Keithy Antoine spoke to him for PAN M 360.
