Hello again! Long time! I made an album titled "Feet On the Ground" and I am so proud of it! Here's its link!
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart !
Geo William Masso was a Cameroonian Makossa singer who just passed. This was my favourite by him.Â
Quâil repose en paix.Â
I canât wait to go back to posting as much as before. Hope everybody is well.Â
Mangbeta harp Africa
Ever seen this music instrument? Needless to reiterate that Africa is a very rich land.Â
From the archives, 3 Brenda Fassie records.
Some Brenda Fassie (South Africa) records! Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!Â
Taty Eyong est une jeune chanteuse Camerounaise de Bikutsi, Afro-jazz et de world music. She happens to have gone to one of the same schools I attended as well and thatâs a fun fact. She released her first single âC mon comme çaâ last year (2017) and although it is her most successful jam, I actually like this one better. It is named âME MANĂâ and is performed in Ewondo I believe and seems to be about hope. Câest une belle chanson et elle apporte un certain sentiment de paix intĂ©rieure aussi. Salut!Â
âLâargent appelle lâargentâ. âMoney calls moneyâ. This is basically a Congolese classic that spilled over to the entire continent. So many musicians covered it, revisited it and sampled it for as long as I remember. As the Youtube links suggests, it was originally performed in 1981 by Pamelo Mounkâa who was a singer/songwriter and record producer from Congo Brazzaville. He also worked with legendary Congolese artist, record producer, singer songwriter Tabu Ley (whom Iâve featured on this blog before). Pamelo Mounkâa is credited for having contributed greatly to Congolese Rumba but also to Afro-Cuban music (he spoke Spanish really well). Pamelo Mounkâa died of diabetes in 1996.
Ce morceau est une rĂ©fĂ©rence dans la musique Congolaise mais aussi Africaine, parce quâil a en effet eu beaucoup de reprises. Câest lâune de mes chansons prĂ©fĂ©rĂ©es, comme vous pouviez certainement lâimaginer.

A picture of some African instruments. I attempted to name them individually. Can you?
Qui se rappelle du Bisso na Bisso? Le super groupe de Hip Hop et de Rap constituĂ© dâune diaspora Congolaise dynamique, artistique et talentueuse? MOI.
I already posted âLâunionâ to this blog, and Iâm coming this time with the lead single of their ablbum âRacinesâ, which âLâUnionâ is also a part of. Itâs in French, and itâs fun, and man I brings about a lot of memories! The title is âBisso na Bissoâ. Do enjoy quality rap and quality music whenever you can, beautiful people!Â
His name was Pierre de Moussy. He was Cameroonian. He just died. This song is an oldie (1981). I grew up thinking the Tom Yoms and Charlotte Mbangoâs rendition (both of them dearly departed) was the only version of it. Câest beaucoup plus tard que je me suis rendue compte que Pierre de Moussy Ă©tait lâauteur de la version originale. Nevertheless, itâs one of my favourite songs by him. I wanted to share because as I always say, death is everyoneâs faith but art never fades.Â
I hope youâre holding your loved ones tight as long as theyâre around. Voici âA senga toâ pour vous, en hommage Ă lâartiste disparu. Câest en langue Douala. I found this webpage with more info on the song:

Let the child open their mind.
This is really creative.
Why do I feel like I havenât logged in since last year? HAPPY NEW YEAR!Â
Something tells me Iâve already shared a Baaba Maal song to this blog, and it might be this one. Regardless Iâm sharing it again because itâs my favourite song of his. Baaba Maal is from this country a good friend of mine would call âThe Land of Awesomenessâ, Senegal, which Iâm yet to visit, but certainly will. I remember my friend also used to tell me in college that Baaba Maal doesnât speak in Wolof if I remember correctly. I will ask again.Â
It is called Souka Nayo and probably means I will follow you. I liked everything about the song while being a child, from the beautiful voices in English at the beginning to the upbeat turn the song takes to his amazing voice. I still do absolutely love this song and I thought itâd be fitting to make it the first post of 2018.Â
Portez-vous bien et écoutez toujours plus de musique Africaine!!!
Yooooo I randomly thought about this song a minute ago. I remember hearing it first when I came home from a very traumatic experience abroad in the first world 5 years ago. I was switching through music channels and bumped on this. The song didnât change my life per se but it immediately brightened my mood and made me smile. It had that effect on me because it took me back to the 90s when Eagle Eye Cherryâs âSave Tonightâ and âFalling in love againâ where some of my anthems. I believe there is something very comfortable and happy about their sound. I also found it interesting that a rock band from Senegal had such a nice video and would switch between Wolof (I believe), French and English languages in one song. Thatâs the colourful beauty of Africa! I also remember finding the lady cool and the frontman handsome in their visuals.Â
Cette chanson sâintitule âFireâ et je me demande pourquoi Takeifa nâa pas explosĂ©, ou du moins nâest pas plus connu, ne serait-ce quâen Occident. Je trouve sincĂšrement leur style rafraĂźchissant, leur dreadlocks époustouflants, et la guitariste albinos ravissante. Câest dommage quâon nâen entende pas vraiment parler, parcequâils sont énormĂ©ment bourrĂ©s de talent. Qu'Ă cela ne tienne, voici le lien de leur page tumblr!Â

This is K-Tino in âMod Ane AbĂ©â which is Ewondo for âHuman Beings are heartlessâ or something along that line. K-Tino used to be the Queen of raunchy Ewondo lyrics in the Bikutsi genre in Cameroon. She no longer releases anything so explicit but her music hasnât been the same! It used to be exquisite when the lyrics were ridiculous. Her band was just always on top and on point.
This is Bikutsi that will take you straight to the village and dance around a big fire, as long as you bump it with really high volume and feel the bass! X-mas D-day -4, which means 4 more songs!Â
A plus!Â
Tshala Muana, from ex-Zaire, Congo! This is an old one as well. (I mean I canât help that I have a thing for vintage things - save me from myself!) It is titled âTshibolaâ and is probably one of her most popular songs in the region. Youâd have to be very open if youâre not from the culture to appreciate it, but I like it a lot. Mainly because it does take me back to childhood (not sure what year it came out), but local TV channels would broadcast her videos and concerts a lot when I was a child. I remember mixing her up with Tina Turner growing up, when in actuality they donât have much in common at all. It was probably the facial expressions while she sings and her (hips) moves and legs! Just a beautiful Congolese woman.Â
En tout cas, ceci est âTshibolaâ par la chanteuse Congolaise Tshala Muana. Je pense ĂȘtre en mesure dâeffectivement mettre un morceau, un lien Youtube ou Spotify sur ce blog chaque jour jusquâĂ NoĂ«l! Je suis sur la bonne voie.Â
