FRENCH CONNECTION

In a Q&A at Midem, power lawyer Joel Katz interviewed global music ambassador Efe Ogbeni for a session on "The Impact of African Culture & Music Around the World."

Ogbeni, manager to global giants Davido and Tiwa Savage, may be more qualified than anyone to discuss the future of African music in the streaming landscape. And dig those bold red socks.

Joel, meanwhile, went boldly sockless.

Stay tuned for more hard-hitting coverage from Cannes.
