The original ADIOUZA, in civilian name Adji Kane Diallo, is a Senegalese artist born in Dakar. At the age of 15, she took her first steps on stage alongside her older brother Cheikh Lo ouza Diallo (a pianist, singer and backing vocalist). It was he who introduced her to music, after she had caught the bug from her father Ousmane Diallo, known as Ouza, who remained a very popular singer because of his strong political commitment.Adiouza made her debut in the world music scene on the Paris stages, where she embraced a career with multiple influences, while remaining very attached to African sounds and rhythms. Her father passed on to her his passion for Senegalese music. Her mother, of Malian origin, introduced her to the great classics of griots and Mandingo artists.

While studying ethnomusicology and music theory (piano, drums and guitar) at Paris 8, she released her first album, “Maadou”, in 2009, a mbalax-beat opus tinged with jazz, soul and RnB. This was followed by a second album in 2013, entitled ‘Lima Doon’, and several singles, the latest of which, ‘Madame Bonheur’, released in November 2020, has racked up over 16 million views on YouTube. In 2022 she released her eponymous single MR Bonheur.

In 2010, she received two awards: Best Newcomer and Best Female Artist at the Sunu Awards.

Her singles Ma la Nob and Daddy were also nominated for the Burkina Faso Kunde and several Afrima awards.

With her beautiful voice, Adiouza is an atypical singer with a melody tinged with sounds that blend traditional African music with pop.

À l’âge de 15 ans, elle fait ses premiers pas sur scène aux côtés de son grand frère Cheikh Lo ouza Diallo (pianiste choriste et chanteur). C’est lui qui l’initie à la musique, après qu’elle ait attrapé le virus de son père Ousmane Diallo dit Ouza, restait un chanteur très populaire du fait de son fort engagement politique. Adiouza a fait ses débuts dans le milieu de la World Musique sur les scènes parisiennes où elle embrasse une carrière aux influences multiples, tout en restant très attachée aux sonorités et rythmes africains. Son père lui transmet sa passion pour la musique sénégalaise. Sa mère d’origine malienne, lui fait écouter les grands classiques des griots et artistes mandingues.

Parallèlement à ses études d’ethnomusicologie et de solfège (piano, batterie, guitare) à Paris 8, elle sort, en son année de Maîtrise en 2009, son premier album « Maadou », un opus au beat mbalax teinté de jazz, de soul et de RnB.

En 2022 elle nous sort son single éponyme MR Bonheur.

En 2010, elle reçoit deux distinctions : révélation et meilleure artiste féminin au Sunu Awards.

Elle est nominée au kunde Burkina Faso et plusieurs fois aux Afrima avec ses  singles Ma la Nob et Daddy.
