More quotes by Angelique Kidjo

Human memory is incredible: despite attempts to eradicate the cultural identity of Africans during slavery, it has survived

My dream is that the music that comes from Africa becomes the identity card and the fingerprint of the continent

"Who are they to tell me what is African and what isn't?"

The problem we have in Africa is that unless you are a traditional musician telling the stories of your people through songs, you have no respect in society

Your brain is your greatest weapon. Connect it to your heart, and you can go anywhere.
