The five-time Grammy Award winning singer, songwriter and activist Angélique Kidjo, who celebrated her 40-year career with a triumphant sold-out concert at The Royal Albert Hall in November, returns this month with a brand-new single “Sunlight To My Soul”.
Released via Parlophone on Friday July 12, the joyful, upbeat track once again sees Kidjo collaborating with some of the biggest names in music.
Composed by the most nominated songwriter in Oscar history Diane Warren, Sunlight To My Soul was produced by Nigerian afrobeat star Shizzi (Ed Sheeran, Fireboy DML, Sean Kingston), and features a guest appearance from South Africa’s Soweto Gospel Choir.
Angélique Kidjo is one of the most revered artists in international music today, a creative force with sixteen albums to her name.
Time Magazine has called her “Africa’s premier diva” and named her one of the 100 most influential people in the world for 2021.
The BBC has included her in its list of the continent’s 50 most iconic figures, and The Guardian listed her as one of their Top 100 Most Inspiring Women in the World.
Forbes Magazine has ranked Angelique as the first woman in their list of the Most Powerful Celebrities in Africa and she was the recipient of the 2023 Polar Music Prize.
