Ivory Coast Musicians
List of the Top Cote d Ivoire music artists
Not nearly West Africa’s most popular music scene, as there is much competition with Nigeria and Ghana, but Cote d Ivoire music artists have established themselves into creating a talented group of artists with a large roster of Ivory Coast musicians.
The Ivory Coast, or the official French version Cote d’Ivoire, is a unique country that has been historically famous for being the world leading producer of cocoa, home to one of Africa’s most promising cities of Abidjan, and the country’s beauty that often attracts tourists from across the globe.
With a large percentage of a fast-expanding population being young and mainly based in the country’s urban areas, along with the popularity of the country’s popular music scene forever growing, it is not hard for Ivory Coast musicians to flourish and build their own platforms amongst a fan favorite crowd of Cote d Ivoire music artists.
Before this generation of artists, Ivory Coast consisted of artists like, in particular order, Espoir 2000, Petit Yode, Monique Seka, Dezy Champion, Les Poussins Chocs, Pierrette Adams, Les Garagistes, Gadji Celi, Petit Denis, Mathey, Soum Bill, and a handful of others. While Afropop, or Afrobeat, has become Africa’s most popular form of music, traditionally the Ivory Coast has embraced genres like Zouglou and Afro-Zouk.
As mentioned, the Ivory Coast has had a long history of successful musicians and singers. But today, the world is finally getting to see another version of Africa with the rising popularity of Afrobeat or Afropop expanding across the globe, the Ivory Coast has much to contribute to the growing trend, from Josey to Kaaris to Ariel Sheney to over a dozen other top Ivory Coast musicians and singers.
