Introducing: Republic of Benin

There is so much we don't know about the different African Nations, thats why I'm very thankful about the videos from Youtuber Paul BarbatoGeography Now! attemps to cover profiles on every single country of the world. They do it in a alphabetically order. There last video was about Chad.
   I learned so much about many african countrys such as Botswana, Burkina Faso and Chad. In this series he describes the national flag, the location, the landscape the demographics and the relation to other country. I really appreciate his efforts.
As I introduced Beninese singer Sessime I fell the urge to find out more about the country of Benin so I came across the videos of Paul Barbato.

 Here is the video he made about Benin Watch and learn as I did :)

I will be posting more of his videos mainly about African Countries but I plan to combine it with an indigenous famous person mostly music artist.

Beninese music: Sessime feat Rico Amaj - Fana Fana

Sessime is my musical oppsession from the last year. Once I listened to her song "Yayaye" that was featured with Togolese singer Almok. I enjoyed that song to bites, especially during the summertime. Born as Bidossessi Christelle Guédou her stage name Sessime derives from her first name Bidossessi that means "Everything depends on destiny" or "Everything is in the hands of God". The Beninese singer describes her music as AfroRockPop. She mixes different languages like French, English, Fon and Yoruba. Her first album Wazakoua won many important national awards. Sessime discovered her passion for music with the tender age of 13 years through her parents. Great stars like Michael Jackson, Angelique Kidjo, Whitney Houston and Alicia Keys inspired her. Sessime released a new song called "Fana Fana" with Ivoirian singer Rico Amaj.
