Details: Amazon.ca Benin-born Afropop star Angelique Kidjo will rock you, but her music is ultimately a wave of higher consciousness. Oremi (« Friends »), her fifth album, makes the first stop of a projected trilogy in the U.S. and creates a coalition between the sounds and spirits of Africa and R&B. The set jumps off with a soul to soul gesture–Kidjo’s powerhouse take on « Voodoo Child, » Jimi Hendrix’s prescient nod to his origins. Collaborations with Robbie Neville, Cassandra Wilson, Branford Marsalis, and Kelly Price range from stunning to intoxicating, as in Price and Kidjo’s « Open Your Eyes » duet. Kidjo scores as strongly solo and never stoops to preach. « Babalao » is this African sage’s moving plea for the world’s youth, while « Yaki » is her impish cackle at pretension taking a well-deserved pratfall. –Elena Oumano Product description 12 TRACKS FROM 1998
