Naive

Naive is a French Paris-based independent record label, production company, and publisher. It was founded in 1998 by Patrick Zelnik, Gilles Paires, Frédéric Rebet, and Eric Tong Cuong. Despite facing bankruptcy in June 2016, the label made a remarkable comeback when it was taken over by the French digital distributor Believe Digital in August 2016.

Known for its diverse range of music genres and artists, Naive has established itself as a prominent player in the music industry. With an impressive catalog of *talented musicians* spanning various styles including classical, jazz, world music, pop, and electronic genres.

The label's commitment to nurturing emerging talent combined with their dedication to delivering high-quality productions has earned them a reputation for excellence. Naive's unique blend of creativity and innovation continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

Senegal’s greatest living artist is back with a major album that subtly alternates between tradition and modernity. ‘History’ strikes a balance between modern sounds and his african roots with variey and eclecticism.

Included is a tribute to Habib Faye his late bassist, a great remix ‘Birima’ with Seinabo Sey and the duet ‘Hello’ with Mohombi amoungst many other treasures.

A little prince of the Dakar medina since his early youth, Youssou Ndour is now growing and evolving within the wider matrix of Africa, influenced by the entire continent’s sounds, moods, and successes. Ndour’s Africa is a continent that’s alive, always in motion. It is therefore an open and informed album that the Senegalese artist offers us. Ndour has never hidden the importance he attaches to linking the past to the future.
