PAN M 360 at Nuits d’Afrique 2024 | Joyce N’sana On The Rise

by Keithy Antoine

One of the most eagerly-awaited acts in the downtown area was Friday’s performance by Congo-Quebec artist, songwriter and performer Joyce N’sana, who was named Révélation Radio-Canada 3 years ago.

She gave us a wild set on the big TD Radio-Canada stage! I was won over by the rhythm and the commitment of the people around me too! This little woman with a big voice performed her best songs with her proverbial energy and wisdom, driven by her love for her audience, her catchy sounds and her beautiful blend of styles – reggae, gospel, hip-hop, jazz, all topped off with the blues. Not for nothing does she call it afrobluehop!

The Festival international Nuits d’Afrique de Montréal is a celebration of our diversity, culture and music,” says Joyce N’sana, who is on the rise. And rightly so!

On Friday evening, the 38th Festival international Nuits d’Afrique de Montréal was in full swing, aided by fine summer weather. A perfect balance of inclusion and diversity through its 6-day program of free outdoor shows in the heart of the Quartier des spectacles, featuring well-known names and those yet to be discovered. The 38th Festival international Nuits d’Afrique de Montréal runs until Sunday, July 21! Check it out!
