Sénégal: Musique Xel Komla: le bâton ou la carotte

PAR MBAGNICK NGOM, 19 AVRIL 2003
fr.allafrica.com/stories/200304190056.html

Corruption, chômage, misère des artistes Le tableau peint par Bamar Ndoye alias «Baye Sène» est bien sombre. Mis à part l'hommage vibrant rendu à la femme-mère, la cassette Xel Komla (soutenue par des messages forts avec ce langage cru propre aux rappeurs) se veut un cri du coeur face aux dérives sociales.

On pourrait dire de cette énième sortie (quand on tient compte de ses participations à d'autres opus) de Bamar Ndoye alias «Gaston» ou «Baye Sène», que cet album - qui signe sa première production solo - est celle de la confirmation. Pour s'être frotté aux ténors du mouvement hip-hop (Didier Awadi, Daddy Bibson, Xuman, Marabout ), Bamar Ndoye semble dire aux mélomanes que les années passées à se frayer un passage ont porté leur fruit. L'expérience est apparemment acquise. Et l'enfant de la Médina, ce quartier qui l'a vu naître en septembre 1977, entend se faire un nom sur la scène musicale.
