Yes, all Beninese people love him. He is best known for his most popular song Vive les mariés.
Quite right - you can't really go wrong with Vikey. I've always loved this song - it's haunting, poetic and beautiful - the phrasing is superb and Vikey's voice has never sounded more sensitive and fragile.
At his best, Vikey expresses simply and powerfully emotions that most of us would struggle to find words for. You cannot ask for more from any kind of artist.
