Between folk, rock and poetry, Souad Massi presents Zagate, a luminous album where the softness of her voice meets the world’s depth. The Franco‑Algerian singer channels anger and hope with touching sincerity; the new record is more electric, moving from warm rock to hypnotic afrobeat, Saharan folk to Parisian blues. Accompanied by Ralph Lavital (guitars), Guy Nsangué (bass), Martin Wangermée (drums) and Mokrane Aldani (violin, mandole), her performance extends themes of freedom and justice.
