Climat by Omar Pene

“Climate”: the time of Man

Well-being, to avoid saying emergence, comes at a price: that of responsibility, alertness, love, empathy, and prayer.

Eight years after the release of “Ada”, Omar Pene returns with a surprising album, produced between Dakar and Paris by the guitarist Hervé Samb. The singer’s soothing voice speaks to the world because it is only together that we can give meaning and use to what is shared. A discourse primarily addressed at young people, to remind them of the sacredness of work, faithfulness, giving one’s word, and of Love.

It’s difficult not to stop at “Lu Tax” (“Why” in Wolof) a work in which Omar Pene invites the singer Faada Freddy to join voices and denounce the strong tendency to gossip. Tearful and painful cries from the heart by two generations of informed artists. All values that will help our world, overflowing with aggression, not to sink. A responsibility that falls to us all.
