Following her 2021 success Mother Nature, this album bridges continents and genres, featuring a star-studded lineup including Pharrell Williams, Quavo, Ayra Starr, Nile Rodgers, and Davido among other A-listers

Produced by Pharrell and Shizzi, and featuring songwriting by the legendary Diane Warren, HOPE!! is more than an album—it’s a global musical movement dedicated to the resilience of the human spirit.

Hailing from Benin, Angelique Kidjo is one of the greatest artists in international music today.
