Almost immediately after the music began, all four of my cats entered the room and became very interested in the sounds. I understand what's happening man. I got it.
Cheikh Ndigeul Lo always kept on doing top quality music. I’ve worked more than 15 years as an african music promoter and Whenever I saw him playing it’s high performance. Thank you for representing our beautiful country Senegal
I am just happy that in our current time where music and musicians are treated so low and under-appreciated, there is still a platform or program like this that values live music and musicians just like how they do it back in days. Thank you for this program. Pls do not stop this.
@@herrrmike They are paid very little. There are more centralized global communities online, but that doesn't negate the fact they are paid the same dollar amount as they were paid decades ago. The pay we give musicians for gigs in low, if they are paid at all.
what a lovely soul Cheikh is...also i dont understand a word but his album was on repeat to and from work 6months straight LOL thats the power of his music...stay blessed Mr Lo..
Senegal like Africa's index finger touching the world, and Dakar is the nerve center of that finger... So many musical traditions come together in that one place
J'ai aussitôt partagé cette performance à tous mes nombreux amis. LO est exceptionnel. Les autres artistes de l'ensemble sont d'une telle maîtrise, d'une telle harmonie. Les boubous sont sublimes. Tout m'a plu. Merci de nous l'avoir fait connaître. Il y a du tempo congolais, mandingue, ouolof. On est emporté loin très loin.
Wow. To think that only yesterday I was at the ER suspecting appendicitis and today, I am here, alive, well and listening to this wonderful music by Cheikh Lô
I first saw Cheikh Lo at Jazz Fest many years ago, 2002, with my wife to-be (we've been married 15 years now). His music has been so many places around the world with us since. Thank you!
Stumbled upon this totally by accident, having no idea who Cheikh Lo or what KEXP is. This music is so enchanting and the band so watchable I can't leave my laptop. Great interview as well. Thank you!
I'm loving these African musicians! This band reminds me of something. Like Paul Simon meets bob Marley or something. Doesn't matter its gorgeous music.
This blew my mind almost immediately, and continued throughout the whole set. I haven't been this blown away by an artist new to me in a long time. Gonna go seek out the rest right now, holy crap!
Darek, I love your hosting! Your voice is so relaxing and you always show so much respect and appreciation for your guests and their music. Thank you for doing what you do. The world needs KEXP!
haven't heard from cheikh lo since I was 12 13 i think. but now i am 30 and this is so refreshing to see. I'm really into this old african legend cant keep up with hip hop anymore it's for the youngsters.👍👍👍
I know Cheik Lo in 2000 in Spain .....I hjad your album " Ne la Thiass" excelent album, so many influences , latinamerican, african, funk, soul and I`m surprise in one song i heard a rhytm too similar to a rythm of my country Argentina, called chacarera , sound with african roots in our folk music .Great Musician ..thank for this session!
CHEIKH NDIGUEUL LO BAYE FALL from senegal , the Best one culture musician baye fall , thé Best, the real, senegal , the Best one SENEGAL FOR LIFE , AFRUCA FOR LIFE ❤❤❤❤❤
Cheikh Ndigeul Lo, is just another level. I wish to have one day enough to produce a project songs with him and Souleymane Faye. They are the bests. Thank you KEXP and thank Cheikh Ndigeul
the second song made me enter a dance induce euphoria, I cried the second half of the song as a warm feeling started in my stomach and spread to my fingers and toes. the baseline got me

KEXP always taking me places! Watching your videos is like visiting different parts of the world and absorbing the local culture in a very intense and tangible way. It's like all the emotions you would collect from a months' journey to a foreign country but concentrated and intensified into one 30-40 minute wave of emotions. Thank you KEXP!
GREAT!!!! KEXP is the best, always bringing music from all over the world, with great audio and video quality, and very interesting interviews!! thank you guys!!! hope to play there one day, Hugs from Brazil!
71 years old! He's a yoda master of sounds

In "our current time where music and musicians are treated so low and under-appreciated"? Are they though?

@@jackk9366 Please preach and educate. We need to uplift creators in this day and age, they are some of our only hope for a better world.
Un autre style musical du Sénégal autre que le Mbalakh pur et dur. Donc une autre richesse. Merci
A genuine artist
A senegalese gem.
Underappreciated
I always and still adore you.
I appreciate your art.

I didn't know this guy! I'm blown away. I think now I know what it's like to be in Senegal.
Sénégal 🇸🇳 For ever
Wow, he started singing and every hair on my body just stood up. What a privilege to hear this music!

The little sax riff on the first song. I don’t think I’ll be able to get that out of my head for a long time.
Scott Legg try the recorded version too.. it’s a bit faster. “Guiss Guiss”
Guiss guiss is surely one of the best songs ever recorded in the world. Long live Chiek Lo! Thanks for this new post!
Stumbled upon this totally by accident, having no idea who Cheikh Lo or what KEXP is. This music is so enchanting and the band so watchable I can't leave my laptop. Great interview as well. Thank you!
Cheikh Lo is one the biggest and most talented musician ever lived :-)

What do you know about Rasta? Cheikh is not even Rasta.
This is amazing! ❤️🇳🇬
Music is beauty if u can listen. 👍
This is quality music at its best. Certainly the most underrated artist in Africa.
Oh man! I have no words.... so rich!
the second song made me enter a dance induce euphoria, I cried the second half of the song as a warm feeling started in my stomach and spread to my fingers and toes. the baseline got me
Hey barkeep! I'll take 2 of whatever this dude is having.
And lyrics are deep

Al hamdallah!
I like it
THE FIRST SONG IS TYPICAL WEST AFRICAN BANTU RYTHM AND SOUND.GOOD TIMES!
Not every Sub-Saharan is bantu. Senegalese are not bantu.
The musicians play well together. So much soul in his voice. Although I would have liked to see Cheryl Waters interview them.
Everybody got a dope shirt too
Honestly that's how I judge a lot of these bands but these guys are standouts.
@@pcarter1989 you "judge" bands by their attire as opposed to their music? Interesting.
@@BetaCummins Uh...both. It's not a dicotomy. Fascinating indeed.
