Kadialy Kouyate - Toña (2025) [Hi-Res]

Toña is the ninth album from Senegalese kora virtuoso Kadialy Kouyate, a deeply personal and culturally rich record exploring the power of truth and reflection. Drawing from his Mandinka griot heritage, Kadialy weaves stories of love, migration, ancestral legacy, and emotional resilience, each track acting like a page from his diary of lived experience.

From the uplifting joy of Kanou Foro Ka Di to the bittersweet ache of Famo Keta, and the reverent remembrance in Musolu Barata, Toña is a tapestry of memory and insight. The album closes with Ça Ira, a universal message of hope. Through poetic lyrics, stirring melodies, and masterful kora, Kadialy offers healing, wisdom, and a connection to something timeless.
