timeless funk song of MaliFeaturing the golden voice of Salif Keita along with influential guitarists Kante Manfila and Ousmane Kouyate, bala player Keletigui Diabate, and Cheikh Tidane Seck on keyboards, Les Ambassadeurs were a legendary West African band in the 1970s and 80s, originating in Bamako, Mali. With their diverse influences in traditional Manding songs, African pop, Cuban jazz, soul and rock, Les Ambassadeurs helped establish some of the brightest future talents of the Malian music scene. When political unrest forced them to leave Mali, the band later changed their name to Les Ambassadeurs Internationales.This song goes back centuries in Manding music, to the time of the Mali Empire. Les Ambassadeurs recorded their version in 1981, only a few decades after Mali's modern independence.Sidiki is a man today for whom nothing seems to go right. Consequently, he has given up his faith in God and in his own destiny. Salif addresses this unfortunate and tells him to have faith in God, to have patience, to persevere and to be stoic in the face of his misfortune. The song takes a turn, then, and the body of the song introduces Faa Koli 'Kumba' Koroma, the famous Mandinka prince of the 13th century. Faa Koli, in contrast to Sidiki, was rich like Croesus- in gold, silver, in foodstuffs, livestock, in everything. In this portion of the song, Salif's voice takes on the pure style of those traditional heralds of the Manding, the griots. At the ending, the song returns once more to Sidiki, and consists of Salif's calls on behalf of Sidiki and the responses of the women who pray for Sidiki, so that heaven might grant his wishes.
