French afro-tinged pop playlist (Spotify)

Need your help! Want to compile a Spotify playlist with afro-tinged French pop. I was ticked off when I heard Mathieu Boogaerts’ delightful ‘Le ciment’, then I thought of the afro-influence in Vanessa’s ‘Tu vois c’que je vois’, and of Irene Jacob’s album, and before I knew it, there was THIS playlist on Spotify. But there must be more French afro-tinged pop songs – listen to the tracks already here, and you get the picture. Add to the playlist!
Unfortunately, this really cool track isn’t on Spotify, but it sure is nice to hear it again.

French girls, singing. No, sighing. Making me sigh. Ah.

    One of the first French artists I discovered was the late Lizzy Mercier Descloux and
    “Mais où Sont Passées les Gazelles?” from her ’84 album “Zulu Rocks” (as it was released in the UK) would seem to fit the bill (actually there a few songs on that multilingual album that could make any Afri-French playlist – but the one I’ve mentioned is a favourite).
