Almost immediately after the music began, all four of my cats entered the room and became very interested in the sounds. I understand what's happening man. I got it.

Yes.

I am just happy that in our current time where music and musicians are treated so low and under-appreciated, there is still a platform or program like this that values live music and musicians just like how they do it back in days. Thank you for this program. Pls do not stop this.

Un autre style musical du Sénégal autre que le Mbalakh pur et dur. Donc une autre richesse. Merci

I didn't know this guy! I'm blown away. I think now I know what it's like to be in Senegal.

Cheikh lo from Senegal🇸🇳 West Africa❤🇸🇳

A genuine artist A senegalese gem. Underappreciated I always and still adore you. I appreciate your art. My senegalese John Lennon. Merci tonton

Cheikh Lo was my best discovery of this 2020 Summer. His Band is also soooo great. This is GREAT music homies!

Senegal like Africa's index finger touching the world, and Dakar is the nerve center of that finger... So many musical traditions come together in that one place

J'ai aussitôt partagé cette performance à tous mes nombreux amis. LO est exceptionnel. Les autres artistes de l'ensemble sont d'une telle maîtrise, d'une telle harmonie. Les boubous sont sublimes. Tout m'a plu. Merci de nous l'avoir fait connaître. Il y a du tempo congolais, mandingue, ouolof. On est emporté loin très loin.

The little sax riff on the first song. I don’t think I’ll be able to get that out of my head for a long time.

​I first saw Cheikh Lo at Jazz Fest many years ago, 2002, with my wife to-be (we've been married 15 years now). His music has been so many places around the world with us since. Thank you!

So proud of you uncle 🥰🥰🥰

Wow. To think that only yesterday I was at the ER suspecting appendicitis and today, I am here, alive, well and listening to this wonderful music by Cheikh Lô

All I can say is thank you for being alive.

This blew my mind almost immediately, and continued throughout the whole set. I haven't been this blown away by an artist new to me in a long time. Gonna go seek out the rest right now, holy crap!
