Afriki

Habib Koite is by far my favorite African musician, a true embassador of his beloved country: Mali and a crusader of peace, love and human rights!
I had the enormous blessing to see him in concert! Mmmm... such a beautiful multi-talented man, such a glorious vibrant spirit!
Habib's voice is like no other, extremely pure, heart opening, healing, inspiring, loving, passionate and beautiful.
He is an amazing composer, singer and guitarist and through his wondrous music can take you to places in your soul that you have never been! I own all of his CDs and love every single one of his songs. He's truly heaven sent. Simply magnificent!

Serendipitously I discovered Habib Koite 5 or 6 years ago, and have thus far accumulated all his recordings. This one was worth the wait! Just beautiful, peaceful, and exotic. I thoroughly disagree with the negative reviews---yes it is the same type of music, and no, i still dont understand the language he uses, but this one has a decidedly different taste to it. Still just soothing and inspirational. Really delightful!

The music on this cd is simply unique and magical. Add to that a voice infused with sincerity and full of heart, and the combination is almost out of this world! Habib Koite sings from his soul and the depth of feeling in his music is reflected in every track. Simply wonderful!

HABIB KOITE IS QUITE AN EXCELLENT GUITAR PLAYER. THIS IS A SUPERB ALBUM BY MALI'S BIGGEST INTERNATIONAL STAR. IT WOULD APPEAR THAT KOITE IS THE HEIR APPARENT TO FOLLOW THE GROUNDBREAKING INTERNATIONAL RENOWN FOR MAILI'IAN MUSIC THAT ALI FARKA TOURE INTRODUCED TO THE WORLD. GREAT PRODUCTION, GREAT SOUND, WONDERFUL MELODIES, AND INSTRUMENTATION.

All the information about this album are proven to be true with this superb collection of songs from Habib Koité. Well worth buying.
