@hedjamavieille Glad you found the video! If you're interested in more music of the kind, we have several albums featuring Ivoirien artists on our website if you go to folkways.si.edu and search for "Cote d'Ivoire".
Thanks for posting this video! I love seeing the continuity between these cultures and African cultures.
I'm glad I happened upon this video while YouTube surfing. I'm adding it to the cultural documentary section of my collection of music & dance video gems. Google jambalayah.
