Oluwa Banjo at Balattou

Sat 16 Dec 2023 • 09:00 pm Bikutsi / Pop
Club Balattou - Montréal 10 $
· by Rédaction PAN M 360

Loyal to the traditions of the Bantu (meaning “the people” in Kingongo) and to its rhythms that are like coded messages, but also fully immersed the modern urban world replete with elements of pop and Cameroonian Bikutsi, Oluwa Banjo sings about life’s preciousness, nature’s immense value and the importance of kindness. A native of Tiko in the southwest region of Cameroon, this positive soul with an infectious energy spares no efforts while performing to win over his audience who can’t get enough of his exuberant dance moves! It is for that very reason that Oluwa Banjo really turned heads during the 2016 Cameroonian national music competition at Mützig Star.

Fidèle à la tradition Bantou (qui signifie « humain » en kikongo) et à ses rythmes qui rappellent des messages codés, mais assumant aussi pleinement son urbanité avec des éléments Pop et l’influence du Bikutsi, Oluwa Banjo chante le caractère précieux de la vie, la grande valeur de la nature et l’importance de la bienveillance. Ce natif de la région de Tiko, dans le sud-ouest du Cameroun, une âme positive à l’énergie communicative, ne ménage pas ses efforts en spectacle pour conquérir le public, qui se délecte de ses mouvements de danse enthousiastes ! Il y a quelques années, Oluwa Banjo s’est notamment fait remarquer à Mützig Star 2016 lors du concours national de musique camerounaise.
