A phenomenally imaginative Madagascar Pop vocalist, and highly influential song writer Colombes Ran’s reputation as the voice of Madagascar already precedes her; She has recorded many esteemed singles: Tosy, Sitraka, Tovo ‘Jhay, Mirado, Andry Ramamonjisoa, Rolf, Kiady, Ny Railovy, Rija Ramanantoanina, and the Groupe Salala, and her stunning albums, such as Pazzapa Vol 2, Satriko Foana feat “Mirado”, Tia feat “Ken”, Tokam-po , Addicted To You, International lovers feat “King de Leone” – all blew us away.  We couldn’t wait for her highly anticipated Philippines concert “Celebration of Love“. And indeed, Colombes made the point herself reaffirming why she is considered such a singular music creator who leads the pop Madagascar scene for so many years. Her new songs were quick, snappy, and run through pretty fast, gripping you as any good correspondence should, and dropping things just as soon as the time is right. Other works with her special guest Thor Dulay (“The Voice of Philippines”) introduce an act with equal parts delicacy and harshness, with subtle riffs and dreamy quietness. It’s good to keep Colombes Ran in mind as the jarringly good modern pop creator of our time that you should constantly keep in mind. Give her music a lot of listen.
