SchoolTime: Angélique Kidjo

Over the past four decades, Angélique Kidjo has become one of the most adventurous and compelling artists on the international pop music scene. The five-time Grammy winner makes connections across genres, generations, and geopolitical boundaries, raising her clarion voice and electrifying, eclectic musical vision to address complex subject matter through radiantly joyful music. Throughout all this, “Kidjo’s voice is constant, an instrument of such power and clarity that it sounds equally capable of polishing glass or announcing Judgment Day” (The New Yorker).
