Portoluz presents Senegalese Omar Pene the emblematic lead singer of the Super Diamono as part of its African Jubilee celebration.
Omar Pene established himself as a "conscious singer," instead of indulging in praise songs- as many of his contemporaries did in honor of the riches and famous, he maintained a repertoire of socially engaged and sensitive songs. To this date, he has released dozens of hits in more than thirty albums and cassettes.
The African Jubilee is a year - long multi-arts and humanities celebration of the 50th anniversary of independence for eighteen different African countries.
