VISITE DE COURTOISIE : Les conseils de Coumba Gawlo Seck à Djélykaba Bintou

Guinean singer Djelykaba Bintou received a warm welcome from Coumba Gawlo Seck, the Senegalese diva with the golden voice, after her performance at Youssou Ndour's Grand Bal. This encounter symbolizes the solidarity and respect between great African female voices.

Accompanied by her staff, Djelykaba Bintou expressed her admiration for Coumba Gawlo Seck, considering her a role model, a mother figure, and a person to emulate. She even declared her ambition to become the Coumba Gawlo of Guinea.

In return, Coumba Gawlo Seck greatly praised the visit. "I am very happy and very proud to receive you. This time, I preferred to welcome you to my home for several reasons. It's a way for me to let you know and confirm that you are part of the family, that you are my eldest daughter. It's also to show you how important you are to me. I have a lot of affection for you," the diva rejoiced.

Coumba Gawlo sees Djelykaba Bintou as a great artist despite her young age. "In a very short time, you have achieved many milestones. I have seen a great many positive qualities in you, and I want to commend them. First of all, your professionalism. You are extremely professional, and that is a great quality. An artist who wants to go far absolutely must be. You are also very well organized with your team. Show business is also a matter of organization. And you know exactly what you want because you value yourself and your image. You are the queen of Guinean music," said the diva.

For Coumba Gawlo, Djelykaba Bintou worthily represents Guinea and Africa. She notes that her name and aura extend beyond the borders of her country.

"You are one of Guinea's cultural ambassadors. You have shown that you are a woman with personality, a woman who knows how to preserve her values," she affirmed.

Coumba Gawlo added that Guinea is truly fortunate to have an artist like Djelykaba Bintou, who represents it throughout Africa, proudly holding its flag.

"I am very proud of you, and I will always be there for you. My door is open to you, you can call me anytime. You are a fighter and you have enormous talent. But you have to understand that an artist's career is never a smooth ride. It is made up of highs and lows, challenges, struggles, and constraints. You have to stay clear-headed, keep your head held high, and always be ready to get back up. You may stumble or fall sometimes, but you must never stay down. That's what I wanted to tell you, while we wait to be able to put together a beautiful project together soon," Coumba Gawlo advised.

She therefore appealed to the President of Guinea, as well as to the entire Guinean community, to support and guide Djelykaba Bintou. Because, she said, music is one of the best means of communication.

This meeting is a fine example of the fraternity and solidarity that exist between African artists.
