Keita’s album, La Différence, was produced around the end of 2009. In a song in his album the singer says :

“I am black/ my skin is white/ so I am white and my blood is black [albino]/…I love that because it is a difference that’s beautiful…”, “some of us are beautiful some are not/some are black some are white/all that difference was on purpose…for us to complete each other/let everyone get his love and dignity/the world will be beautiful.”
