Hello dear DC readers, how is the going? Hope the going is great for all of you and many thanks for keeping our blog going with the constant visits and comments. We appreciate you just as y'all appreciate this blog. Muaaaahhhhh xxxx
Today we would like to finally let you guys know that the new initiative "Where We Belong" has been launched. This is a 9 track album released by Project New Bamenda and will be available to buy on iTunes soon. The album features tracks that are deeply rooted in promoting and embellishing the best of the North West Region from traditional music instruments to the traditional dialects. It also features young and upcoming artists such as Natty, X-Brown, Dratzy, Nan City, Telma, Glynn, NollyGoh and N. Jackson; who went through a selection process for the project.
We had the priviledge to listen to the entire album and would like to firstly congratulate the efforts of the entire PNB team and the producers of the album as well as the artists.
Each artist on the album brought something to the table. They all had their own styles, their inspiration as well as their experiences and this is evident in all their lyrics as well as in the main album single "Where We Belong (I go fly)" where you could easily pick out the artist. "Cant Stop" by Telma was a great opener for us. What a track! Natty has a great voice, what she needs is confidence and more development to enable her to believe in her abilities more. X-Brown very much asserted himself on this album and he sure stood out in our opinion. His track "Lumuteya" is such a cool track and we love the blend with dialect which he employs. Dratzy is another artist who like Natty needs more development. We definitely believe in his potential and we hope to see him rise in the Camer music scene.
"Ngwang Ngwang" by Nan City is a track that though it talks about some deep issues, is meant to put a smile on your face as a listener. "Wind Inside Of Me" by NollyGoh is THE inspirational track of the album. When you feel like you are about to give up, don't stop! You have the wind of change inside of you...it says! It's all about freedom and believe and you can hear this in his voice as he sings.
Overall, it is a good first project. What they need to build on is the production which we believe could have really solidified the album as a whole. For the next music project, the PNB process should seek to work with a music studio that has an A&R with a great ear for music.
