71 years old! He's a yoda master of sounds

Sénégal 🇸🇳 For ever

Un autre style musical du Sénégal autre que le Mbalakh pur et dur. Donc une autre richesse. Merci

Senegal like Africa's index finger touching the world, and Dakar is the nerve center of that finger... So many musical traditions come together in that one place

what a lovely soul Cheikh is...also i dont understand a word but his album was on repeat to and from work 6months straight LOL thats the power of his music...stay blessed Mr Lo..

Cheikh Ndigeul Lo always kept on doing top quality music. I’ve worked more than 15 years as an african music promoter and Whenever I saw him playing it’s high performance. Thank you for representing our beautiful country Senegal

Wow, he started singing and every hair on my body just stood up. What a privilege to hear this music!

Am so grateful to know africa we have legend like you we still waiting for more to make proud black people am fro Rwanda big up for Senegal

Cheikh lo from Senegal🇸🇳 West Africa❤🇸🇳

I didn't know this guy! I'm blown away. I think now I know what it's like to be in Senegal.

Wow. To think that only yesterday I was at the ER suspecting appendicitis and today, I am here, alive, well and listening to this wonderful music by Cheikh Lô

I am just happy that in our current time where music and musicians are treated so low and under-appreciated, there is still a platform or program like this that values live music and musicians just like how they do it back in days. Thank you for this program. Pls do not stop this.

Cheikh Lo was my best discovery of this 2020 Summer. His Band is also soooo great. This is GREAT music homies!

A genuine artist A senegalese gem. Underappreciated I always and still adore you. I appreciate your art. My senegalese John Lennon. Merci tonton

J'ai aussitôt partagé cette performance à tous mes nombreux amis. LO est exceptionnel. Les autres artistes de l'ensemble sont d'une telle maîtrise, d'une telle harmonie. Les boubous sont sublimes. Tout m'a plu. Merci de nous l'avoir fait connaître. Il y a du tempo congolais, mandingue, ouolof. On est emporté loin très loin.

Almost immediately after the music began, all four of my cats entered the room and became very interested in the sounds. I understand what's happening man. I got it.

Feels like I'm there ( Senegal ) eating red red fish and rice in a cafe. Love this.... ❤ ❤ ❤ 💕

Much much love from the Czech Republic. Amazing set. Thank you KEXP for highlighting great African artists.

Excellent! The man is vocalist, composer, multi-instrumentalist etc. Wish him long life! Thanks KEXP!

Much love, from Buffalo NY, USA ❤🎵✌

​I first saw Cheikh Lo at Jazz Fest many years ago, 2002, with my wife to-be (we've been married 15 years now). His music has been so many places around the world with us since. Thank you!

"Music is a young person's game, you can't make money if you're not young and marketab"...Cheikh walks in

The first song sounds like a sunrise with coffee.

Darek, I love your hosting! Your voice is so relaxing and you always show so much respect and appreciation for your guests and their music. Thank you for doing what you do. The world needs KEXP!

All I can say is thank you for being alive.

Dominican Republic love this music

from Senegal west Africa the country of love and Teranga we love Chiekh Ndiguel lo

No doubt “The Cheick,the Sultan of African Music.” Composer Arranger singer Songwriter Guitarist Drummer Percussionist & Timbales.

Sitting on top of our roof terrace and blasting this with no regrets!

15:21 blows my mind when the vocalist/guitarist starts to play drums effortlessly

haven't heard from cheikh lo since I was 12 13 i think. but now i am 30 and this is so refreshing to see. I'm really into this old african legend cant keep up with hip hop anymore it's for the youngsters.👍👍👍

Wow this performance was legendary 🔥🔥🔥✊🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿😃😃 senegambia ❤❤❤

Wow, KZfaq recommends another winner. KEXP rarely disappoints, but this one really hits the sweet spot for me!

CHEIKH LO is one of the greatest musicians to come out the African continent

I'm loving these African musicians! This band reminds me of something. Like Paul Simon meets bob Marley or something. Doesn't matter its gorgeous music.

i'm never leaving this channel. what an ecstasy

What a good mood to replace the COVID mood

It feels like the universe is aligning effortlessly, and it's amazing😁 Much love from eSwatini 🇸🇼

People who are out there hung up on colors and tones are missing out on some amazing and inspirational events of our lifetime.

So proud of you uncle 🥰🥰🥰

Une fierté pour la musique sénégalaise. Tu es le meilleur baye fall

Stumbled upon this totally by accident, having no idea who Cheikh Lo or what KEXP is. This music is so enchanting and the band so watchable I can't leave my laptop. Great interview as well. Thank you!

I stopped listening music but this music is another level 😂. I can't help myself

i heard the saxophone come in and i knew what time it was.. those African melody/lines just get me every time.. thank you

Un grand messieurs de la musique sénégalais j'aime trop

One of the greatest artists in the world. Cheikh Lo

Such fantastic exposure to such exceptional world music has to be one of greatest contributions of KZfaq

The little sax riff on the first song. I don’t think I’ll be able to get that out of my head for a long time.

Thank you for KEXP introducing me to a new favorite!

L'artiste le plus complet du senegal.voir mem de l'afrqu de l'ouest il jou a la guitar au batiste et a la percussion zn plus il chante bien

From México: RESPECT! 💪🔥💓

Love and peace form Morocco 🇲🇦

Kheuche Lo ne la thiass. Longue vie à toi brother. Encore beaucoup plus performant que quand tu etais jeune. Love you bro. Vive Galsene

Lots of love for Mama Africa and their sons the Artist, soul of the people!!!

KEXP always taking me places! Watching your videos is like visiting different parts of the world and absorbing the local culture in a very intense and tangible way. It's like all the emotions you would collect from a months' journey to a foreign country but concentrated and intensified into one 30-40 minute wave of emotions. Thank you KEXP!

Sama ana guéne walla hamoléne music. Big up baye Fall. It's a nice sound

THE ULTIMATE SENEGALESE LEGEND

I'm stuck here playing till the end, I'm so scared of missing any sound 🥰😭

Super musique !!!! Grand plaisir... Les tissus des chemises des musiciens sont vraiment magnifiques...

This blew my mind almost immediately, and continued throughout the whole set. I haven't been this blown away by an artist new to me in a long time. Gonna go seek out the rest right now, holy crap!

Amazing Cheikh Lo is so talented - God bless u

I know Cheik Lo in 2000 in Spain .....I hjad your album " Ne la Thiass" excelent album, so many influences , latinamerican, african, funk, soul and I`m surprise in one song i heard a rhytm too similar to a rythm of my country Argentina, called chacarera , sound with african roots in our folk music .Great Musician ..thank for this session!

This is quality music at its best. Certainly the most underrated artist in Africa.

what a good surprise, youtube showed me this video, I had never heard anything like it here in Brazil

Love up father Cheikh ndigeul lo we are proud of you 🙏🏿

It makes me feel the earth beneath my feet.

Amazing performance. The third and fourth songs were insane and would put most modern prog bands to shame. Bravo

A fan for many years. This was beautiful.

Pure bliss! Much love from 🇰🇪

Cheikh Ndigeul Lo, is just another level. I wish to have one day enough to produce a project songs with him and Souleymane Faye. They are the bests. Thank you KEXP and thank Cheikh Ndigeul

THE FIRST SONG IS TYPICAL WEST AFRICAN BANTU RYTHM AND SOUND.GOOD TIMES!

Music is beauty if u can listen. 👍

This is such a magnificent MOOD, man, that’s a LOT of music going on there

Had no idea this was exactly what I needed today

Rasta with the own roots with the same all destiny. Rasta never die, rasta ever faithful, rasta ever young.
