Fatoumata Diawara: Tiny Desk (Home) Concert
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- The Tiny Desk is working from home for the foreseeable future. Introducing NPR Music's Tiny Desk (home) concerts, bringing you performances from across the country and the world. It's the same spirit - stripped-down sets, an intimate setting - just a different space.
Abby O'Neill | February 3, 2022
Fatoumata Diawara is a true multi-hyphenate - an esteemed Malian singer, songwriter and actress who left her home country at 19 to pursue her artistry in France. By way of Como, Italy, she delivers a riveting performance alongside her bandmates, many of whom have toured with her since 2018. The guitarist and keyboardist here - Yacouba Kone and Arecio Smith - both contributed to her Grammy-nominated album, Fenfo.
Rich, textured guitars complement her native Bambara vocals and bring a contemporary feel to her traditional Malian sound. These renditions are sonically disparate from her album versions. On "Kanou Dan Yen," Fatoumata's captivating and calming aura is as contagious as her electric smile. "Nterini" is a touching ode to her lover about how distance creates enormous heartache. Fatoumata ends her set on a vibrant note with "Negue Negue," an uptempo Afrobeat jam with rambunctious rhythm and spirit.

Thank you NPR and Tiny Desk for this opportunity! Much loveeeee
Ciao Fatou!!!
Saw you live in NY just before the pandemic hit! One of my best concerts!
I was kinda hoping for "sowa" on the set list. Such a wonderful song both sound and lyrics. Love from nigeria
1Thank you for sharing your beautiful using and spirit. Perfect way to start a day
Well deserved!!
I'm convinced this woman is made of pure magic.
Magick with a k
10000%
I thought the same thing myself.
Of course. Yessssssssssssss...
Facts
I can't believe I'm seeing Fatoumata on Tiny Desk!! I love her so much and I'm so glad to see her getting the exposure she deserves.
she has been long overdue to be on Tiny Desk... Fatoumata is an under rated legend. Thanks Tiny Desk for bringing her music to the world.
One thing about Fatoumata? She will move you with her voice and finish you off with her guitar 😮💨🔥
The guitarist Yacouba Kone is phenomenal!
I was going to comment this; dude's got (tasteful, song-serving) chops!
TWO great guitarists here, what a pleasure
what is he exactly do in the first song? is he just playing the same arpeggio over and over? it sounds amazing.
@@mdbergfeld Yes you are right:
"An arpeggio (Italian: [arˈpeddʒo]) is a type of broken chord, in which the notes that compose a chord are played or sung in a rising or descending order."
So the Bible says. I think he is playing these arpeggios extremely good.
This is the Africa sound!! Love from Ethiopia!
0:00 - *Kanou Dan Yen*
6:54 / 7:27 - *Nterini*
12:20 - *Negue Negue*
[18:14 - Tiny Desk team]
Thank you for this as I wanted to know the name of each song!
For those who don't know, she does Nterini on COLORS, that's how I discovered her, and it too is an incredible performance.
A great live band is like a microcosm of what human societies should be like - everyone lifitng each other up, and working together to get it done and to accomplish something beautiful. Love it.
Beautifully said!
One of Africa's finest export.
Surprised "Sowa" was not on the set list. Thats one of my favorite songs. Gotta love Fatoumata
Same!
sowa is incredibly good my fav aswell, but this live negue negue gave me chills all over again.
Finally someone said it! Top tier song 🤌🏼
Seeing her live in Oslo on the 6th of November. Can't friggin' wait ! :D
😭😭😭that version of N’tereni hits hard👌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
One of the best vocals in Africa🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
She did a collaboration with Gorillaz not long ago, called Desole' from the Song Machine album if anyone is curious 💜
Thanks 🙏
That's my favorite song off Song Machine. She's amazing.
Savage tune 👍
love that song
AND a song with Bobby Womack on his last album, wholly produced by Damon Albarn
Mali puissanci 🇲🇱🇲🇱a magne deh 🥰🥰
Love you ❤️❤️
She makes music look so effortless
How can a woman be this beautiful!?!She IS music 🌹
The band so incredible!
The audio engineering so insane!
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
Nterini is a song I want to hear from today until my last breath, what a vibe😭
She's one of the wonders of the world! I love her, pure music and energy and (mostly) cheer and beautiful
She radiates beauty & joy. Amazing as always 🙏🏻
Definitely
I got to see her live once - I was absolutely blown away. What a singular talent.
EXACTLY!!!💯 💯 💯 💯
On one of her interviews she mentioned that she is inspired by Angelique Kidjoe and Mirriam Makeba amongst others... My heart leaped with joy 🔥🔥
One of the best artist out there!
You ain't lying
I had the privilege of seeing her live on a beautiful summer day a couple of years ago in Quebec, it was amazing! I still remember to this day her wild dance at the end, contagious energy and smile!
Just lovin all the different genres of music on NPR and Tiny Desk!
Yeah it really is great.
One Love from Italy... Free Mali 🔥🇲🇱
All my worries fade away when I’m listening to this beautiful music. The world is in harmony.
Fatoumata Diawara.Obrigado mil vezes por existires e alegrares as nossas vidas
braseeelllll
Wow, I'm blown away! She is amazing and the whole band looks so happy to be playing with her :)
Oh my word!...... What a truly remarkable lady , what a tight band too. If I ever have the great fortune to see them live I am going to need someone to hold me up because this truly is breathtaking. When they reach those peaks, I can feel it penetrating right to my marrow.
She got Charisma, a beautiful voice and she is a very good guitarist as well. What else do you want?
The sound is always so good on these concerts! Props to the sound engineers.
Elegant shredding ! A queen!
"Let´s do good, let´s have fun
Africa, let´s have fun
Mali, Africa let´s have fun! Africa!"
she sings in her last song. And I believe she is right, we all need fun and hope.
That does it.. im moving to Africa.
I am so in LOVE with Ms. Fatoumata and her beautiful sound. She is a gem and must be protected at all costs.
The thumbnail caught my eye, I do not regret clicking on it. Am now a fan, thank you Fatoumata Diawara & Tiny Desk 🙏
I love the West African influence! God bless you sister, Thanks for your musical contribution
Incredible- transcendent voice and playing. What a joy to watch
I love the dummer's tiny fills and details. Overall, nice groove from the whole band.
i’ve been listening to her for so long not knowing what her songs are about, not only is this a spectacular performance but seeing the translation was great too
🗣️ I'm so proud of this Queen!!! 👑 🖤 💎 🇲🇱 She deserves the world!! 🙌🏾 💖
Spellbound!! Thank you NPR for introducing me to this magical woman and her band.
the solo riff at 11:45 is absolute magic!
I loved that part, but my favorite is the extended break at around 16:20 that moves to another style break, and back to the original song theme. That was intense and awesome - Fatoumata's voice creates most of that intensity, but also her arrangment.
Well that put a smile on my face!! If you can sit still for this you just might be dead. Thanks Tiny Desk!
I remember listening to her on COLORS so happy she's here
oh i LOVE how she reworked the songs for ths set! Nterini is one of my favorites off of Fenfo, but this rendition was really fun as well! the way Fatou shreds on the guitar in the first song takes the cake for me though! 💗💗 so glad y’all brought these incredible artists to the stage!
And she can play the guitar...whoa...
Who else has been waiting for this forever??😍
This band, This singer are UNIQUE, GENUINELY TALENTED AND FULL OF IDENTITY, STYLE AND ART TO THE EARS AND EYES

What a joy to watch this set. Hadn’t heard of them before watching. Thanks npr for always turning me on to amazing artists ⭐️

Check out Bobby Womack's song with her
You really must listen to "Fatou" the album. You in for such a treat
This is pure love & art! Thank you so much Fatoumata for sharing your amazing talent with us. Much love and light sister.
No idea what they're singing about in Ntereni but I listen to this song so often. I LOVE IT! That guitar does it for me all the time.
For some reason my video has subtitles. It’s about a love who went away to another place suddenly, wanting to see him again and wondering if he’ll ever return
@@farahmoore5897 I didn’t know I could switch them on. Thanks for the heads up. I love it.
@@malcomtafira5697 yeah neither did I! For some reason it was just on, on her video. It was nice seeing what she was singing about
A beautiful voice! Radiant energy! I've been watching alot of Fatoumata's songs after seeing her feautured at Gorillaz! Wonderful artist to showcase at TinyDesk! ❤️🎉✨
She's playing the guitar as good as anyone on the planet at this moment I can name one or two as good but not one playing any better!
Missed "Sowa" on the setlist, but I'm so happy to see Fatou at Tiny Desk! xoxo from Brazil!
Wow, this is great - that first tune sounds so cheerful, wouldn't have had a clue it was a break-up song till I read the subtitles...
Wow me either 😁 I guess they left it on good terms😆
All of the musicians are carrying their own weight...beautiful rhythms...Thank you Fatoumata Diawara.
Absolute blessing to hear this music! Best outfit I’ve seen on tiny desk! You can tell how much the band is enjoying themselves while supporting such beautiful and lively vocals! Thank you!!!
Here is Fatoumata, a woman that does a solo like Hendrix and leave her husband with a smile and happiness
What a great performance, Fatoumata Diawara¡¡¡¡ regards from Bolivia.
I CANNOT WAIT to see this woman and her band when she comes to Portland next month! This music is amazing!
the vibe is just like sunshine on a rainy day. Loved the outfit!
amazing performance. this is what the world needs right now. music is the language of us all, no war or pandemic can ever stop that.
Pure talent and creativity, such a pleasure to hear it in today’s music industry. Thanks tiny desk for promoting these kind of artists, they need you !
