About this user

Kanté Kerfonse´s family have been ´griots´ (traditional troubadours) in Guinea for over 100 years. His grandfather, Elhadj Djeli Fodé, and his grandfather's brother El Hadj Ibrahim Kanté, were two very famous griots from the Manding empire. (Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manding_Empire) Thei music has been transmitted from father to son, to Kerfonse's father Manfila Kanté and his uncle Mory Kanté, well known in Europe from his 1988 hit records Yéké Yéké. Kerfonse was born January 1 1979 in Conakry, Guinea. His mother's name was Djesoou Koyaté. Kerfonse's father was a singer, composer and eexceptional guitarist and balafon player. Kerfonse joined his father on stage from a very early age and follows in his footsteps as a composer of his own music. In his music he tries to mix traditional Guinean music with other genres of western popular music, like reggae, rap, groove, rumba, jazz and salsa to produce a veritable kind of world music. His first cd is called "Femmes Battues' on the ABS Bellissima/Melissa Music label. http://www.abs-belissima.com His music proves that traditional African instruments blend very well with western guitars and keyboards. His songs are, of course, about love, but also about the protection of nature, the rights of women, like in the title song of his cd, which translates as 'Battered Women' and about living in a multicultural world. He is currently touring the festivals of Europe to promote his cd. He is a true revelation in modern African music.
