Papa London
Al'Varela, nicknamed Papa London by his friends, is a singer, songwriter and
composer from Cape Verde. Divided between his passion for music and an early
soccer career compromised by injury, he tried his hand at rap, then experimented
with Caribbean sounds and bachata before embracing the kuduro style. In 2009,
his first single, "Dansa Kuduro", found favour with DJs and radio programmers.
In 2014, "Sueño Caliente " catches the charts with a potential hit. In June
2015, Papa London produced "Blessin Lov", a ragga dancehall track sung in French
and calibrated for summer parties.
