Bio
Frédéric Ehui, professionally known as Meiway, is a renowned Ivorian singer, songwriter, and composer. He is credited with inventing a unique musical style called Zoblazo. Inspired by the folk rhythms of the Akan, Zoblazo incorporates traditional percussion and modern orchestration into his music. Meiway's second album, 200% Zoblazo, brought him fame in 1991, and he went on to win the title of best singer in Ivory Coast. Meiway's music is danced with a white handkerchief, a symbol of joy, purity, and peace.
