Ivorian influencer Stéphane Agbré, known by the pseudonym Apoutchou National, has recently taken on the role of a singer. After releasing several successful singles that were well-received by Ivorian music lovers, the son of Ivorian filmmaker Brigitte Bleu has officially announced the release of his album, consisting of twelve (12) tracks, titled “Lumière” (which translates to “Light” in English). He made the announcement through a post on his Facebook page on Friday, September 22, 2023. “I am officially announcing the release of my 12-track album titled ‘Lumière.’ On October 20, 2023, I will unveil the result of persevering and long nights of work. I will leave it to you to judge each track, but I assure you that many will be surprised by the outcome of these dedicated hours,” he wrote.
He also took the opportunity to unveil the album cover, before summarizing his determination to get to where he is today. “God’s timing is not the same as humans’. To live in this world nowadays, we must have three things: the courage to face difficulties, the fear of God, and the ambition to succeed and surpass ourselves. I left point A for a better destination, which will be point B. Today, I am opening a new chapter in the story of my life: from the virtual to reality. I will demonstrate to the whole world and to those who still doubt their potential that it is possible to step out of one’s comfort zone,” highlighted Apoutchou National.
The influencer-singer has also collaborated with Ivorian, Cameroonian, and Malian artists, such as Sidiki Diabaté, Mani Bella, Kerozen, Tiken Jah Fakoly, and KS Bloom.
