Cheikh Ibra Fam calls for unity in new single, "Gnou Mbollo," the third single from the
acclaimed Senegalese star's upcoming album, "Adouna" (Life), to be released in February 2026 by Cumbancha.
"Gnou Mbollo," which means "Let's Unite" in Wolof, is more than just a song—it’s a powerful call for global African unity. It is a vibrant anthem that connects the diaspora, reminding us that no matter where we are—from the streets of Dakar to the shores of Brazil—our roots and our shared history bind us together.
With this new single, Cheikh Ibra Fam continues to set the stage for Adouna, an album scheduled for release in February 2026 that explores the universal human experience and the profound connections that tie us all together. The other singles that have been released from the album are “Xam Xam,” a powerful ode to knowledge and the journey of
understanding and “Sali,” a soulful love letter to African femininity and authenticity.
A former member of Senegal’s legendary Orchestra Baobab and a recipient of the Charles Cros Academy prize, Cheikh Ibra Fam has established himself as a powerful voice in contemporary African music. Deeply influenced by his Baye Fall spiritual tradition and a wide array of musical styles from Otis Redding to Orchestra Aragón, Cheikh weaves tradition and
innovation with poetic grace.
