Video: Takeïfa - Supporter

Takeifa is a Senegalese band of siblings from the Keita family headed by brother Jac. With their very unique sound, Takeifa considers themselves a new generation of musicians aiming to break music frontiers. Check out their new video for their latest single "Supporter" which was directed by Lionel Mandeix & Loic Hoquet.

Takeifa music suggests breaking down barriers, proximity between cultures, cultural hybridity and equality. Their songs talk about issues such as childhood poverty (Talibé), traditional superstitions (Guissané), immigration (My dream) or education (Senegal). Sung in different languages (French, English, Spanish), although their native language Wolof is the dominant, Takeifa songs have a unique African pop style covering reggae, jazz, acoustic... Their African roots are reflected not only in their music, but also in their bare feet on the stage, meaning attachment to the land and the need to take care of the Earth.
