Danyèl Waro has always stayed faithful to the acoustic tradition of Maloya, the blues of the island of Réunion, and he is recognized as its "hero". As a musician and poet, he sings Creole with unparalleled emotion: ?Maloya, for me, is first and foremost about the word," he says. "I'm looking for the cadence, the image, the rhythm in the word. Maloya has put me in touch with Réunion, with its people, with our language.? ?monmon? (the lower-case ?m? is deliberate as it is not only for his own mother but for all "monmons?), resonates with all the spirituality and commitment of this outstanding artist.
