Kwamé Ba - Rivaj (2026) [Hi-Res]

Rivaj is the debut studio album by Martinican pianist, composer, and choreographer Kwamé Ba (also known under the artistic moniker Fényan), released in May 2026 via the independent label Piébwa Records and distributed by Paradise Entertainment & Distribution. The musical fabric of the work represents a multilayered synthesis of contemporary Caribbean jazz, neo-soul, and broken beat structures. The piece is envisioned as an intimate yet powerful statement exploring the dual identity of the author, navigating the intersection of Martinican traditions and Senegalese lineages. The recording features guest vocal appearances by artists such as Nicolas Pélage and Guynel. Their performances seamlessly complement Kwamé Ba's expressive piano textures, transforming traditional harmonies into a kinetic and rhythmically complex narrative inextricably linked to the culture of street dance.
