Шаблон:Dmy Шаблон:Bots Шаблон:Infobox album Bamanan is a collaborative studio album by Malian singer Rokia Koné and Irish producer Jacknife Lee. The album was released on 18 February 2022 by Real World Records.[1] The album was Koné's solo debut.[1] It was produced by Lee based on a half-finished album Koné made in Bamako. It was received positively by critics, and its two singles were nominated for two All Africa Music Awards.

Release

The album's first single, "N'yanyan", was released on 27 October 2021, with a music video directed by Senegalese filmmaker Joseph Gaï Ramaka and shot inside Ramaka's Gorée home.[2][3] The second single, "Kurunba", was released on 14 January 2022, with a music video directed by Zambian dancer and choreographer Kennedy Junior Muntanga which was shot in a club in London.[2][4]

Composition and recording

Bamanan sees producer Lee combining recordings of Koné's vocals with electronic dance music instrumentals.[1][5][6][7] Koné – who is originally from Ségou, the former capital of the Bambara Empire[5] – sings in the traditional music of her people,[5] which Lee backs with genres such as "near-house" dance music on "Kurunba",[1] synth-pop on "Mayougouba",[7] and Afro-ambient on "Bi Ye Tulonba Ye",[7] as well as turning "N'yanyan" into a piano blues ballad.[1][7] Closing track "Mansa Soyari" is a reworking of a song from the Les Amazones d'Afrique album République Amazone.[1] The album also sees contributions on guitar from Koné's frequent collaborator Sountoucoumba "Salif" Koné.[1][5]

The album was originally half-completed by Koné in Bamako, who was stuck in her home country due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic as well as political instability.[6] Lee, having heard Salif Koné's guitar work on Les Amazones d'Afrique's albums, was inspired to call Rokia.[6] "Floored" by her vocals, Lee stripped away the instrumentals and composed his own.[6]

Reception

Шаблон:Music ratings The Arts DeskШаблон:'s Mark Kidel called the album an "outstanding meeting of the ancient and the new", with the "gutsy authenticity of Bambara music" being "resplendent in this collaboration".[5] MojoШаблон:'s David Hutcheon said songs such as "Soyi N'galanba" and "Mansa Soyari" were "positively anthemic, even arena-filling", and said "'Mayougouba' is destined to fill club dancefloors the world over."[6] PopMattersШаблон:'s Adriane Pontecorvo wrote that Koné's "artistry as a singer is impeccable and only accentuated further by Lee's expertise as he builds a distinctly global stage for her work."[1] UncutШаблон:'s Stephen Dalton called Koné's vocals "melismatic, piercing, [and] richly textured", and called "Bi Ye Tulonba Ye" a "highlight, invoking U2 at their Eno/Lanois prime".[7]
