info 

American-born Lagos ?bred Nigerian singer-songwriter Kuku bridges the gap between his Yoruba roots and the western world. After years of touring and four independent releases in the US, Kuku relocated to France. His haunting and nostalgic voice is continually mentioned in context with some of his diverse and biggest influences, such as Pierre Akendengue and Screamin? Jay Hawkins. He has been a tireless musical force for more than a decade now, but if you ask him he will tell you that he is just getting started.
