The early nineties saw the rise of a new cosmopolitan dance
music style in Abidjan, mainly introduced by Meiway. This new style, Zoblazo,
entered the dance floor in many African countries, and is characterized by a simple up tempo
rhythm and high tech instrumentation. The chorus lines may seem a bit sweet for European
ears, but Meiway's music guarantees a hell of a party! Born: 17 March 1962, as Fréderic-Désiré Ehui in Grand-Bassam. Style: Zoblazo. |
