“137 Avenue Kaniama” is the highly anticipated debut album from Baloji, a Congolese-born, Belgium-based poet, composer, lyricist, beat maker, scriptwriter, actor, video artist and stylist. His singular sound stands at the unlikely crossroads of traditional African music, hip-hop, French folk, soul, funk, jazz and electronic. Through this amalgamation of influence, he produces a musical hybrid that’s intelligent, earnest and demanding of movement.

Of Congolese origin and based in Belgium, Baloji is a poet, composer, lyricist, beatmaker, scriptwriter, actor, video artist and stylist. His music stands at the crossroads of African music, rap, the French singer-songwriter tradition, afro-american music (soul, funk, jazz) discovered via hip hop culture and sampling; and electronic music (trance, deep house) which was prevalent in the region of Belgium where Baloji grew up. New album ‘137 Avenue Kaniama’ picks up on those electrifying live shows, a fusion of traditional African music and more modern innovations.
