King Mensah

‘The Golden Voice of Togo’

King Mensah, known as the ‘the Golden Voice of Togo’, is one of the most popular singers from Togo

Philosophical, poetic, and socially committed, King Mensah’s music and creations are inspired by Togolese music traditions. With a deep love for Togo and its musical legacy, King Mensah charms audiences with the traditional sounds of his country. The main theme of King Mensah’s music is hope: hope for street children, hope for the oppressed, but also hope for people of every country and origin.

He wears his name well: He is without a doubt the greatest African music revelation so far in this third millennium and seems destined to go on captivating audiences for many years to come.

In his music, King Mensah fuses elements of traditional Ewe music (Agbadza and Akpessé), and Kabye dance-drum music, with funk, reggae, and West African Afropop. He sings mainly in Ewe and French, about hope, the future, and religion. 

Strength, determination, and beautiful melodies filled with hope, peace and love — these are the essential qualities of the unique music of the man they call “the Golden Voice of Togo.”
