Atlanta based Feliaho, also known as BaoBaobitz has been producing music for quite a while, as he has diversified his knowledge, of the music industry. 

Felix is an experienced and prolific producer with a very diverse back ground ranging from Motown classics to R& B, Hip Hop ( old, & new schools) African Urban as well as Jazz and Rock!

BaoBaobitz mission is to creating beats which will feed creativity and originality, so therefore give your songs the bang that makes the difference!

​

Feliaho did have promising beginnings with the hip hop posse Alabassi (one of the pioneers of the movement in Togo), with the release of Moile, Moile/ Softly, Softly (early 90s), the very first hip hop album in Togo and which helped them to securing a coveted opening act spot for the French rap icon Mc Solaar during his African tour stop in Lome. Alabassi was also noticed for its acclaimed 100% live performances at the French Cultural Center of Lomé in 95 and in 96, followed by a tour in the top clubs of the capital.

 

Unfortunately, the rise of the group will take a very hard blow as a result of the combined effect of a number of external factors (the socio-political climate in the country marked by a vicious cycle of strikes, streets demonstrations, violent repressions) as well as personal factors. The group will take an (endless?) hiatus.

 

In 2001, Alabassi's Bo Wiseman returned to the spotlight as Feliaho with an 8-track album titled Magnificat Vol I. The opus will be noticed by the hit Bien Aimee, a refreshing cover of the classic Rokia by the late Afro diva Bella Bellow of Togolese origin. Bella Bellow untimely passed away at the age of 27, on December 13, 1973 in a tragic traffic accident. Feliaho’s cover of this hit song will be marked by the use of the famous vocal effect auto tune for the first time in a musical production in Togo.

 

Relocated for more than a decade in the States, Feliaho will have even been picked to be the opening act for famous African performer Youssou Ndour on the Boulder, Colorado’s leg of his US tour before a packed Chatauqua Auditorium in 2004.

Atlanta, Georgia based for a number of years now, Feliaho has made a name for himself in the world of beats production. He took advantage of the city's vibrant musical creativity, particularly with the likes of Trap and Dirty South, which he mixed with his African roots to produce an original sound that some Americans like to call international beats.
