Hip Hop Artists in the US & Africa come together to save Rap Music

Has rap faded away from the lyrical concept of hip hop?

“I became a hip-hop singer not for success or my own glory, but to be “The voice of the voiceless, Hip-hop in Africa needs to grow, we are the journalists for the people.”

Hip hop Artist Moussa Lo, aka Waterflow

 I can recall when themes of conscious rap ran rampant in hip hop music. Lyricists at their best, mixing their rhymes to topics on religion, aversion to violence, African American culture and advancement, the economy, or simple depictions of life in the projects/ghetto that reveal the struggle of ordinary people. Grandmaster Flash’s “The Message” was an early and hugely influential political and conscious hip hop track, decrying the poverty, violence, and dead-end lives of the black youth of the time.  Read more

Wagëblë sur Le Messager newspaper

Sortie d’album : Wagëblë revient avec un message d’espoir

Les deux membres du groupe Wagëblë ont présenté à la presse leur dernier album. Cet opus titré « Message of Hope » traduit la philosophie du groupe, qui a du baver longuement avant d’en arriver à ce stade. Pape Moussa Lo et Mansour Kandji se sont mués, le temps de la rencontre avec les journalistes, en de véritables prêcheurs. Ils ont exhorté les jeunes à croire en eux-mêmes.


Les deux artistes qui vivent en Norvège depuis quelques années ont voulu revenir au bercail pour présenter ce dernier opus. Au cours de cette rencontre, ils sont largement revenus sur leur parcours qui a été plus que difficile. Issus du Ghetto de Thiaroye, ils ont trimé dur avant de pouvoir s’imposer sur la scène musicale.   Read more

Wagëblë sur Populaire Newspaper

Durant la tournée sénégalaise, Wagëblë a eu a rencontrer la presse au Just 4 U, pour la sortie de l'album Message of Hope. Voici l'article parut sur Le quotidien Populaire, le Jeudi 20 Janvier 2011.

NOUVELLE PRODUCTION MUSICALE : Les rappeurs de Wa Gëblë d’avis que les jeunes n’ont pas besoin de Wade pour s’en sortir.

      Cinq ans après leur dernier album, le groupe de rap sénégalais établi en Europe Wa Gëblë revient avec «Message of hope» (Message d’espoir), un opus de 15 titres qui sortira le 26 janvier prochain. Le message des deux rappeurs est un encouragement à la jeunesse qui doit travailler dur, croire en elle et se dire qu’elle n’a pas besoin du président pour réussir. Revoilà le groupe de rap de Thiaroye Wa Gëblë qui, 5 ans après son dernier album (Sénégal en 2005), nous amène son troisième opus de 15 titres : «Message of hope» (Message d’espoir). Un produit qui sera disponible sur le marché le 26 janvier prochain. Wa Gëblë, qui signifie «Wax-Aduna-Gêddu-ëttu-Baatin-Lemu-ëlek» ou le lieu de rencontre d’un peuple où chacun discute des questions quotidiennes qui affectent sa vie, est comme une famille qui «compte transmettre au monde les valeurs essentielles de la vie pour un futur positif». Établis à l’étranger (entre les Etats-Unis et la Suisse) ou ils suivent des cours au Conservatoire, Witness et Waterflow ont fait face à la presse, hier, au Just4U pour parler de ce message d’espoir et donner des conseils aux jeunes Sénégalais particulièrement et Africains généralement. Pour se faire comprendre, leurs messages sont en wolof, français et anglais et sont disponibles pour tous dans un style de mélange de Hip-hop, de poésie et de slam, basés sur des thèmes bien définis.   Read more
