FAMAS: Merging Music and Fashion

Heavily inspired by fashion designers Nackissa, Loza Maleombho, Elie Kuame, Gilles Touré, Ibrahim Fernandez and Olooh concept – to name a few – Ivorain musician Famas seeks to showcase African culture, tradition and identity through his discography.

His artistic identity as the street boy Noussi, in his hit single I Yêrê Kalon, is inspired by the Oliver-Twist-like underdog archetype, with dashes of Nackissa and Loza Maleombho’s design influence in his persona’s style.
