Angélique Kidjo



Blending the vibrant West African sounds of her Beninese roots with global influences—from American funk to Latin rhythms— Kidjo's music transcends borders and genres.

Apr 09, 2026. 8 p.m.

With five Grammy Awards and 16 acclaimed albums, Angélique Kidjo stands at the pinnacle of international music. Named one of Time’s 100 most influential people, she has redefined what it means to be a world artist.


Her latest album, Mother Nature, is a joyful collaboration with rising African and diasporic talent across Afrobeat, Afro-pop, dancehall, hip-hop, and alt R&B. The album honors tradition while forging a musically rich sound that is socially urgent and deeply human. 


Recognized by outlets like ForbesThe Guardian, the BBC—as well as global institutions like Amnesty International and the World Economic Forum—Kidjo is not only a musician but also a cultural ambassador and beacon of change.
