Makeda sweeps you into Les Nubians’ velvety Afro-soul universe, where smooth harmonies meet a history lesson set to a groove. The sisters call out the ‘official’ narratives that have erased or distorted African greatness, naming figures from Ramses to Mandela and spotlighting Makeda, the legendary Queen of Sheba. By singing her story, they revive a past where Black beauty, intellect, and power took center stage, inviting listeners to question myths and reclaim their heritage.
Each chorus rings out "La reine de Saba vit en moi" (The Queen of Sheba lives in me), turning Makeda into a symbol of living memory and unshakable pride. Les Nubians urge their people to dance, sing, learn, and confront ignorance, reminding us that wisdom is within reach and joy is an act of resistance. The result is an uplifting anthem that repairs lost links, celebrates cultural identity, and inspires everyone to write a more truthful, empowered future.
