Biographie
Patrick Tanguy Séry Digbeu, known as Debordo Leekunfa, was born in Abidjan in 1984. A coupé-décalé figure, he broke through in 2009 with 'American Soldier', then established his style with the album Opah à la Nation (2013), whose title became his nickname. In 2022, he performed at FEMUA 14 in Anoumabo; in 2024, 'Djénéba Djaba' took him back to the top of the Ivorian charts.
