Tiken Jah Fakoly

(Wrasse Records/ WRASS159)

Now living in exile in Mali, Tiken Jah Fakoly is a gifted, articulate, angry artist from the Ivory Coast who uses his reggae driven lyrics to challenge the devastating condition of his country and gives the global status quo a verbal kicking too. His latest album 'Coup De Gueule' is getting rave reviews and you'll also find him guesting on Amadou & Mariam's 'Dimanche a Bamako' album.
