Open Air Concert
With his charismatic voice, his complex rhythms and his energetic stage performances, Omar Pene is one of the best-known artists in Senegal, a voice of the masses whose lives and experiences he sings about in his lyrics.
With his band Super Diamono, he modernised Mbalax with elements of jazz, rock, soul, funk, pop and Afro-Cuban rhythms.
His current album Climat - a collaboration with guitarist Hervé Samb - combines the typical fast Afrobeat rhythm runs with tender, bright melodies.
