Biography<\/strong><\/div>\n
\n
\n

Senegalese rapper Didier Awadi spent the ’90s as one-half of hip-hop duo Positive Black Soul, riding out rap’s golden age in one of his countries’ most beloved acts before striking out solo. Themes of positive societal change and revolutionary politics are at the core of Awadi’s music, and he has collaborated with a large cross section of established international artists on albums like 2018’s reggae-tinged Made in Africa.<\/p>\n

Awadi was born in 1969 in Dakar, Senegal. He became enamored with hip-hop as the art form was in its nascent stages of development in the early ’80s, and he quickly got involved with breakdancing and rapping. Throughout the ’80s, he led his own rap group, Didier Awadi’s Syndicate, and in that time he encountered fellow rapper Duggy-Tee. The two would form the group Positive Black Soul in 1989 and spend the next decade and beyond collaborating with some of the world’s more visible rap artists while spreading messages of social justice and calls to action.<\/p>\n

In 2002, both rappers launched solo careers, with Awadi releasing his solo debut, Kaddu Gor, that year. He signed on with Sony Music for the release of 2005’s Un Autre Monde Est Possible and the next year’s Sunugaal. His music was taking on more radical political stances, and he often worked with a crew of other rappers called PBS-Radikal. Awadi released two successive and star-studded mixtapes, 2010’s Presidents of Africa and 2013’s Ma Revolution, which featured guest spots from a wide-ranging host of artists including Wyclef Jean, Issa Sanogo, M1 from Dead Prez, and many others. His 2018 album Made in Africa was similarly adorned with guest stars, with its reggae undertones enhanced by performances from Sizzla, Alpha Blondy, and Ombre Zion. ~ Fred Thomas<\/p>\n

AWADI: PRESIDENT D’AFRIQUE<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
Chaque leader, homme politique ou visionnaire a fait un jour sa profession de foi, prononc\u00e9 son \u00ab I have a dream \u00bb \u00e0 la mani\u00e8re de Martin Luther King. Didier Awadi propose dans son nouvel album Pr\u00e9sidents d\u2019Afrique, projet artistique, pluridisciplinaire et multim\u00e9dia de revisiter l\u2019histoire de l\u2019Afrique \u00e0 travers les discours marquants d\u2019illustres leaders, de penseurs \u00e9clair\u00e9s africains ou afro-cara\u00efb\u00e9ens. Ce projet, pour la renaissance africaine, est un hommage aux p\u00e8res fondateurs 50 ans apr\u00e8s les ind\u00e9pendances.
\nIl se veut un outil ludique, historique et p\u00e9dagogique qui permettra \u00e0 la jeunesse de se r\u00e9approprier son histoire, de se reconstruire une fiert\u00e9, en un mot de restaurer son \u00e2me, il permet enfin \u00ab aux lions de donner leur version sur les histoires de chasse \u00bb : l\u2019histoire de l\u2019Afrique vue par les africains.
\nPour ce faire, nous nous appuyons sur les grands discours des p\u00e8res fondateurs de la conscience noire tels que Nelson MANDELA, Martin Luther KING, Kwame NKRUMAH, Thomas SANKARA, Patrice LUMUMBA, Cheikh Anta DIOP, Aim\u00e9 CESAIRE, Frantz FANON…Tous ces grands discours sont mis en musique.
\nCe projet regroupe beaucoup d\u2019artistes conscients de l\u2019Afrique et de sa diaspora tels que Babani KONE et les Tatapound du Mali, Maji Maji du Kenya, Tiwoni et Lady Sweetie des Antilles, Smockey du Burkina, DEAD PREZ des USA, Skwatta Kamp d\u2019Afrique du Sud, Lexxus de la RDC etc\u2026<\/p>\n

\u00ab Comment dire l\u2019histoire ? \u00bb
\nJusqu\u2019\u00e0 pr\u00e9sent, le rap a toujours \u00e9t\u00e9 tr\u00e8s ancr\u00e9 dans le pr\u00e9sent, contextualis\u00e9, d\u00e9crivant les sympt\u00f4mes d\u2019une soci\u00e9t\u00e9 malade. Ici, de chroniqueur, le rappeur Didier Awadi devient m\u00e9morialiste et invite ses amis MC\u2019s \u00e0 faire red\u00e9couvrir aux jeunes g\u00e9n\u00e9rations la force et la contemporan\u00e9it\u00e9 des id\u00e9es de grands Africains qui ont fa\u00e7onn\u00e9es le continent. Le flow s\u2019enrichit du sens historique, \u00e0 la mani\u00e8re des griots, et la tradition orale retrouve ses lettres de noblesse \u00e0 travers les v\u0153ux qu\u2019ont form\u00e9 des hommes pour une nation, une r\u00e9gion, un continent !<\/p>\n

Sur sc\u00e8ne<\/p>\n

\u00ab Pr\u00e9sidents d\u2019Afrique \u00bb est une mise en musique de grands discours de Thomas Sankara (Burkina Faso), S\u00e9kou Tour\u00e9 (Guin\u00e9e), Nelson Mandela (Afrique du Sud) et tant d\u2019autres qui ont r\u00eav\u00e9 l\u2019Afrique \u00e0 l\u2019heure des ind\u00e9pendances ou ont su d\u00e9noncer les injustices. Awadi, accompagn\u00e9 par son groupe (cora, percus, clavier, guitare \u2026) invite aussi sur le plateau la cr\u00e8me des musiciens, rappeurs, chanteurs des pays qui seront \u00e9voqu\u00e9s par les diff\u00e9rents discours. Le line up sera survitamin\u00e9 gr\u00e2ce \u00e0 la pr\u00e9sence d\u2019artistes venus d\u2019Afrique du Sud, du Mali, de Guin\u00e9e etc. Les genres musicaux enrichiront le r\u00e9pertoire par la gr\u00e2ce de la fusion entre le rap et les musiques traditionnelles.<\/p>\n

\u00ab Pr\u00e9sidents d\u2019Afrique \u00bb est aussi une mise en image de ces grands moments. Suite \u00e0 une recherche documentaire rigoureuse et pointue, les images ou les s\u00e9quences choisies seront plus qu\u2019une simple illustration. En effet, le Vjing est travaill\u00e9 pour avoir un fort impact visuel sur les spectateurs et, en tant que vecteur de communication avec un contenu informatif, permettra l\u2019\u00e9veil des consciences.<\/p>\n

\u00ab Pr\u00e9sidents d\u2019Afrique \u00bb est un message d\u2019espoir, un spectacle positif qui s\u2019adresse aux jeunes g\u00e9n\u00e9rations. Il permet de rendre accessible l\u2019histoire \u00e0 tous ceux qui s\u2019int\u00e9ressent \u00e0 l\u2019Afrique, mais pose implicitement cette question : \u00ab Que reste-t-il de tous ces r\u00eaves ? \u00bb<\/p>\n
