comment
  • Ejigayehu Shibabaw (1974), conocida como GiGi, es una cantante etíope de música jazz, soul y afrofunk. Nació en el seno de una familia campesina, dedicada al cultivo del café, que se trasladó a Addis Abeba en 1984. Ante la oposición de su familia a que siguiera la carrera musical, huyó a Kenia, donde formó su primer grupo. Actuó por primera vez en Nairobi en 1993. En 1996, de regreso a Etiopía, juntó el grupo de teatro "Salomon et Saba" de Massimo Schuster, junto con Fantahun Shewankochew y Wores Egziabher, y actuó en varias ciudades de África Oriental y del Sur. El grupo visitó también Francia, donde Ejigayehu y sus compañeros grabaron un disco para la "Maison des Cultures du Monde", titulado Éthiopie/Chants d'amour (1997). (es)

Après avoir sorti un certain nombre d'albums populaires, distribués avant tout dans les magasins éthiopiens, elle rencontra Chris Blackwell, qui avait révélé au monde des icônes comme Bob Marley et U2 sur son label révolutionnaire Island Records. Blackwell fit signer Gigi avec son tout nouveau label indépendant Palm Pictures. (fr)
