Dave Guests for Kidjo

By Waldo Jaquith
Angelique Kidjo's new album, "Black Ivory Soul," comes out tomorrow, and one of the tracks includes a duet with Dave Matthews. The song, "Iwoya," has been described by Amazon.com (unfortunately) as "nothing more than a calculated shot at radio airplay," although the album as whole is described as "lovely." Kidjo opened for and even sang with Dave Matthews Band for a portion of their spring 2001 tour. Thanks to Thomas Trussell for the tip.
