Biographie
Mohamed Alpha, dit Djanii Alfa, founded the label G4Life Musik and became with "Sicario" and then "Chief Rebel" the most frontal rapper in Guinea: his texts denounce corruption, ethnic instrumentalisation and police violence, which earned him arrests and exile, but also a huge audience. In January 2022, he filled the General Stadium Lansana Conté in Nongo. A voice that counts in Guinea's public debate.
