Early life Bassy was born in Mintaba, Cameroon, one of 21 offspring from his father, a police chief. His mother was the youngest of his father's three wives.
He began singing at the age of three, waking up at 5 am every day to rehearse with the other children of the village.
Musical career Bassy's band Macase toured Cameroon for ten years until winning the Prix Elysse Musique du Monde in 2001, which convinced Bassy to emigrate to Paris, France. After performing in small venues, he secured a recording deal for his first two albums. The first, entitled Leman, was released in 2009 and was followed two years later by Hongo Calling.
In 2015, he released the album Ako from which 15 seconds of Kiki was used in Apple's global advertising campaign for the iPhone 6. Bassy says that the album was influenced by Skip James, the American blues musician. Robin Denselow, writing in The Guardian, says: "...his new album echoes the delicacy of bossa nova along with reminders of his other influences, from African styles to the Mississippi blues of his hero Skip James. This is an easy-going but experimental set in which he plays guitar and banjo, sings in the Cameroonian language of Bassa, and is backed by the unlikely combination of cello and trombone. He starts by showing off his distinctive voice on a cool, drifting late-night ballad, but then changes direction as he swings into a breezy song that sounds like an African answer to a country-blues hoe-down, before mixing Congolese influences with impressive, bluesy guitar work. A charming, intriguing set."David Honigmann in the Financial Times describes the album's genre as manouche jazz and describes "lubricious trombone slides" on Kiki and the "relentless Gypsy vamping" of Wap Do Wap.
He has toured globally performing at the Royal Festival Hall, London, in the Africa Utopia festival in 2015, and at WOMAD in New Zealand in 2018. He is due to play the Vancouver Folk Music Festival in July 2018.
Bassy's lyrics are in Bassa, one of 260 Cameroonian languages.
Blick Bassy est un auteur-compositeur-interprète camerounais. Sa chanson Kiki de l'album Ako a figuré comme chanson thème pour le lancement mondial de l'iPhone 6 en 2015.
Jeunesse Bassy est né à Mintaba, au Cameroun, l'un des 21 descendants de son père, un chef de la police. Sa mère était la plus jeune des trois femmes de son père.
Il a commencé à chanter à l'âge de trois ans, se réveillant tous les jours à 5 heures du matin pour répéter avec les autres enfants du village.
Carrière musicale Le groupe de Bassy, Macase, a fait une tournée au Cameroun pendant dix ans avant de remporter le Prix Elysse Musique du Monde en 2001, ce qui a convaincu Bassy d'émigrer à Paris, en France. Après avoir joué dans de petites salles, il a obtenu un contrat d'enregistrement pour ses deux premiers albums. Le premier, intitulé Leman, est sorti en 2009 et a été suivi deux ans plus tard par Hongo Calling.
En 2015, il a sorti l'album Ako dont 15 secondes de Kiki ont été utilisées dans la campagne publicitaire mondiale d'Apple pour l'iPhone 6. Bassy dit que l'album a été influencé par Skip James, le musicien de blues américain. Robin Denselow, écrivant dans The Guardian, dit: "... son nouvel album fait écho à la délicatesse de la bossa nova ainsi que des rappels de ses autres influences, des styles africains aux blues du Mississippi de son héros Skip James. C'est un jeu facile à vivre mais ensemble expérimental dans lequel il joue de la guitare et du banjo, chante dans la langue camerounaise de Bassa, et est soutenu par la combinaison improbable de violoncelle et de trombone. Il commence par montrer sa voix distinctive sur une ballade fraîche et dérivante de fin de soirée, mais puis change de direction alors qu'il se transforme en une chanson aérée qui sonne comme une réponse africaine à un hoe-down country-blues, avant de mélanger les influences congolaises avec un travail de guitare bluesy impressionnant. Un ensemble charmant et intrigant. "David Honigmann dans le Financial Times décrit le genre de l'album est du jazz manouche et décrit des "slides de trombone lubrifiants" sur Kiki et le "vamping Gypsy implacable" de Wap Do Wap.
Il a fait des tournées mondiales au Royal Festival Hall de Londres, au festival Africa Utopia en 2015 et au WOMAD en Nouvelle-Zélande en 2018. Il doit jouer au Vancouver Folk Music Festival en juillet 2018.
Les paroles de Bassy sont en Bassa, l'une des 260 langues camerounaises.
