  Is Alpha Blondy secretly gay and hiding in the closet?

Alpha Blondy is celebrating his 72nd birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, he is one of the most acclaimed singers of his generation.

Popular singer Alpha Blondy (Jerusalem, Brigadier Sabari, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of himself hidden from view. At 72nd birthday, he remains a man of many facets.

Blondy, a cultural icon

Born Seydou Koné in Dimbokro on January 1, 1953, his career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Ivorian history. Blondy's not just a great singer, he's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business man. At this point in his career, there seems to be little Alpha hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Alpha Blondy as he promises more to come. After all, he's only 72.

Happy Birthday, Alpha, you're the best!
