Lwanbé + Saroyé + Turbo Boom Boom

Lwanbé

Lwanbé emerges like a magmatic force in the musical ocean: it's the hip-hop eruption of fonnkèr, "bottom of the heart": Reunionese state of mind and poetry. Sailing on ternary rhythms, deep bass and electronic arpeggios, his lyrics tell us about human erosion and the inner cyclones that drive us.

It's a gentle anger with the sounds of neo-rad kréol, anchoring its steps in the heaviness of roulèr and rising to the bounce of kayamb: the traditional instruments of maloya - the music of Réunionese slaves - meet contemporary electronic textures, 808 kicks and synthesizers, creating a bold, lively fusion. His music, as changeable as the island's climate, blends the intimate and the political, and bows to the wind of its rawest emotions.

Lwanbé embodies a committed voice, defying convention with sincerity and boundless creativity, and stands out as a force for change, ready to shape the musical landscape with vulnerability and conviction.

Accompanied by her kayamb, LWANBÉ, an insular and insubordinate artist, sculpts new music from the power of maloya, wrapping it sometimes in immersive polyphonic waves, sometimes in an incisive rap flow in kréol.
