Angélique Kidjo – Agolo

"Agolo" is a song by Angélique Kidjo from her 1994 album Aye. Sung in Fon and blending West African rhythms with pop, jazz, and traditional percussion, the song addressed environmental problems and the growing imbalance between humans and nature. Kidjo used the track to speak about the earth reacting to pollution, destruction, and human neglect, while its energetic arrangement and powerful vocals helped introduce her music to a wider international audience during the 1990s world music era.
