Elow鈥檔 is a singer-songwriter and rapper from Ivory Coast, who came to fame as a member of the rap group Kiff No Beat. With hits like Approchez Regardez featuring the late DJ Arafat, Kiff No Beat ushered in a new wave of Ivorian rap, or "Rap Ivoire".

Kiff No Beat made a comeback in 2024, releasing C Komen which has now racked up a million and a half plays on Spotify and, as Elow'n tells TIA, the group plans to release a new album soon.

Elow鈥檔 launched his solo career in 2020, and last year he released an album and at least six new music videos. Somehow he intends to make time this year to revive his side hustle as a tattoo designer.
