tumblr_mzq4kk02mZ1rgjheqo1_500I received my first copy (CD) of Angélique Kidjo’s work when she performed at the Gypsy Tea Room in Dallas, Texas. My godmother took me to see the concert and I stood in line for a long time to get my CD cover signed. I had just turned 25 years old. I will never forget it and I’ve been jamming her music every since that time.

I saw this article this earlier today and was so happy to see her get her just due in a national publication in the United States. It helps that it was published in the Arts&Leisure section too.
