Fadal Dey
Born in Bouaflé, Côte d’Ivoire, in 1966, Koné Ibrahima Kalilou became a reggae artist under the stage name of Fadal Dey. His first release was a four-track demo in 1993, followed by his first album Religion. It sold over 100,000, a figure bettered by his second record Jahsso. Considered one of the rising reggae stars in West Africa, Dey has encountered censorship and reprobation for his outspoken positions on peace in his troubled nation. In May 2007 he was injured in a demonstration against piracy. |
