Angélique Kidjo is a Beninese singer-songwriter, actress, Four-time Grammy Award winner and activist of Nigerian descent who is noted for her diverse musical influences and creative music videos. In 2007, Time magazine called her "Africa's premier diva". In addition to her recording career, Kidjo was an outspoken advocate of education and health care for women and children. Today we crush on her for her great talent, songs addressing issues of global concern—such as homelessness, the environment, freedom, and integration. “The audience gives me energy, so I have to give it back. If I kept it, I wouldn’t be able to sleep for two days.” — ANGELIQUE KIDJO #AfricanFemaleArtistCrush #ZafrikaRadio Tune in http://www.zafrika.net/
