· by Rédaction PAN M 360

« Les gens veulent quelque chose de rafraichissant », expliquait Kenzow à The Gazette, disant du même coup vouloir amener la coolitude de la guitare ouest-africaine dans les rues de la ville. Le fils d’Idrissa Ouedraogo manie une pop africaine inspirée de reggae, s’égarant parfois dans des recoins soukous.

Jeune artiste auteur-compositeur-interprète, originaire du Burkina Faso, il a posé ses bagages à Montréal il y a deux ans, après un passage par la France. On peut d’ailleurs l’entendre jouer de la musique dans les rues de Montréal ou dans le métro.

Avec des sonorités afro pop urbaine et reggae dans le style d’Afrique de l’Ouest, Kenzow souhaite toucher et émouvoir le plus de monde possible, peu importe les origines.

Très inspiré, le musicien passe son temps à la recherche de nouvelles sonorités, souvent accompagné de sa guitare. Fils du célèbre réalisateur Africain Idrissa Ouedraogo, Kenzow a été bercé par l’art et la culture, depuis son enfance.

“People want something refreshing,” Kenzow told The Gazette, saying he wanted to bring West African guitar coolness to the city streets. Idrissa Ouedraogo’s son wields a reggae-inspired African pop sound, sometimes straying into soukous corners.

A young singer-songwriter from Burkina Faso, he moved to Montreal two years ago after a stint in France. You can hear him playing music in the streets of Montreal or in the subway.

With urban Afro pop and reggae sounds in the style of West Africa, Kenzow wishes to touch and move as many people as possible, regardless of their origins.

Very inspired, the musician spends his time looking for new sounds, often accompanied by his guitar. Son of the famous African director Idrissa Ouedraogo, Kenzow has been rocked by art and culture since his childhood.
