It was tough! Charlie Parker is Les Patrons’ manager, and he’s a busy man. We eventually found time to meet and share ideas. We agreed to work les Patrons’ 2 first albums through Akwaaba!

Today I met with Ivorian stars DJ Menza and Kedjevara, what a trip. Menza flaunted a skin tight white outfit, Kedjevara was slightly more subtle, and both were down with Akwaaba, so we’ll be releasing some of their coupé décalé hits for the rest of the world to enjoy and dance!
