Celebration from Sultan by Alune Wade

Recorded by an Algerian rapper, this next-to-last song could have brought the curtain down on the album. Three years have gone by since the previous opus, African Fast Food. Alune Wade took his time in designing his record because its awakening encompasses the construction of a beautiful end and he knows how feelings can weigh on the recipient. The ones who welcome with a smile also have their own past, there’s no need to weigh it down further. Which is why the musical cohesion brings its own proof. The percussions are intimately linked to our vital rhythm because we must celebrate life, birth, loss, mourning, an album. It’s a struggle.
