Ibeyi is a French musical duo consisting of twin sisters Lisa-Kaindé Diaz and Naomi Diaz. The sisters were born in Paris and are of Cuban descent. Their mother is French singer Malouma, and their father is Congolese percussionist Angá Díaz.
The sisters began singing together as children. They first performed publicly at the age of eleven, singing a cappella at a local market in Paris. In 2013, they self-released an EP entitled Oya. The same year, they signed with XL Recordings and released their eponymous debut album.
Ibeyi's music is a mix of Cuban Yoruba music, French pop, hip hop, electronica, and R&B. Their lyrics are in English, French, and Yoruba.
The sisters have said that they are "not trying to make a political statement" with their music, but that they hope their music can "bring people together."
In 2015, Ibeyi won the BET Award for Best International Act.
Ibeyi's second album, Ash, was released in September 2017.
Along with their father Anga D'az, the pair cites King Krule, James Blake, and Frank Ocean as influences. They have performed songs by rapper Jay Electronica, including Better in Tune with the Infinite, live.
