5 artists. 4 cultures. 1 infrastructure.
One roof. Four cultures. One mission.
From Dakar to Paris, from Algiers to New York — the Madoky roster brings together artists from four distinct cultural worlds, united by a shared conviction: African music and its diaspora have something irreplaceable to say to the world. Our role is to help them say it.
“Every day I contribute to building, structuring, and making a sustainable Senegalese cultural industry shine.”
KER MADOKY was born from a simple conviction: African music has untapped global potential. Since 2019, we have been building the infrastructure that allows artists from Dakar, Algiers, and Paris to take their rightful place on the world's greatest stages.
With over 20 years of experience at Universal Music Africa — where he created and led the U LIVE department — then at Live Nation France, where he managed European tours for Sting, Jay-Z, Shakira, Orchestra Baobab and others, Abibou Mbaye has brought together under one roof all the expertise needed to develop, protect and export African talent and its diaspora.
