From Cameroon & Paris. She’s got a glorious voice and has recorded a delicious mix of music that owes debts to Africa and Europe, Classical and Jazz. Pick a track at random & play it…she’s wonderful. Lyrics in Duala, a few are religious. One star for each track. 1. Slow a capella. Only 1.23 2. Wonderful female vocals harmonies. Swaying. 3. Chamber instruments, dramatic down-tempo. 4. Slow, romantic w/beautiful violin/piano. 5. Mid-tempo world groove. 6. Gentle and lyrical homage to women. 7. Jazzy w/a light percussive sway. 8. Smooth jazz grove. Think Sade. 9. Just piano & voice. Slow, dramatic, kind of sad. 10. Sweet a capella tribute to her parents 11. Guitar & voice, mid-tempo, about God. 12. Upbeat a capella anti-war track. Very cool. 13. Jazzy piano, chorus. A swinging groove. 14. Bouncy. Percussion & chorus. Nice. 21 February 2003 | ||
