Tucked away a couple of streets from the belly of Cocovico market in Abidjan, where merchants and buyers engage over the din of rap ivoire, zouglou and coupe-decale, the most popular Ivorian music genres, the Baoulecore Archive centre pays homage to an older era of music. Hundreds of records and cassettes from Ivorian icons such as Reine Pelagie and Daouda le Sentimental are stacked on shelves alongside other Black musicians such as Sun Ra and Youssou N'Dour.
