Dj​ï​o Dji

from Talendjourou by Zantogola

/

about

Djïo Dji means “Rain Falls”.
It is inspired by a West African childhood song, sung in the playgrounds of Burkina Faso, Mali, Guinée, Gambia and the Ivory Coast. The lyrics are about torrential rain, wind and storms, about an exhausted bird struggling to fly high and the conversation of a rolling stone broken by the thunder. In our day to day lives, this naive children’s song stands here to remind us of what has happened to our beautiful world, and what needs to be done to save it from climate and environmental collapse.
Djïo Dji features Ethiopian singer and visual artist Haymanot Tesfa.
