Tiken Jah Fakoly's musical success, spanning more than three decades, is founded on four cornerstones, the foundation of which stands for his clear and uncompromising reggae and is reflected just as clearly and unmistakably in the popular African musician's lyrics. Be it as a defender of the oppressed or as a constant thumb in the wound of the tyrants he names.
Already in the early 90s, with his first band 'Djélys" in Odienné, a town in the northwest of the Ivory Coast, Tiken Jah stood out with his deep, haunting voice. However, a major success and the first of the strong cornerstones was his debut album under his name, 'Mangercratie" (1999), made in Abidjan. It shook both the local reggae scene, but above all the powers-that-be, the decadent upper class, the "old gluttons," as he dubbed them, who ignored the signs of the times and clung to power. He laid the second foundation in Paris, the central nerve of France, with his third album 'Françafrique" (2002), a term that informally stands for - as Tiken Jah denounced in his lyrics - France's antiquated political system and its mafia-like structures.
That same year, his country, Ivory Coast, was torn apart by civil war. His countrymen had "lost their minds," as he had prophesied earlier in one of his song lyrics. Fakoly sought shelter in Bamako, but without feeling like a refugee, because "Africa is united," Africa is united, as he had always proclaimed. In Bamako, he laid the third cornerstone with the aptly named 'L "Africain" (his fifth album, 2007), followed by the fourth cornerstone, the magnificent 'African Revolution" (2010), his seventh album, which formed the final foundation: a revolutionary cry, a direct political call, unleashed in the sheer, simple reggae rhythms, unannounced and all the more beautiful and powerful for it.
His eleventh and latest album 'Braquage de pouvoir" (Rape of power) continues this path. The album hits the nerve to the point, because it is not content to summarize Tiken Jah's musical and political achievements, but reveals in its entirety the essence of the Fakolian style - an adjective we dare to invent, as Tiken Jah Fakoly dared to create these strong pillars.
