FAB REMIX WITH A FAB ARTIST CALLED FAB...IT'S THE HEIN PERE REMIX!

It's about that time, you know how it is...Stanley Enow is back yet again and has given us more than a little njangsang with this banger of a remix...

Pheew, so it's certainly been a whirlwind 8 months for starboy Stan since the official release of “Hein Père” video shot by the renowned videographer Shamak which has seen him on a steady journey upwards. During this period Stanley has won awards, met the first lady of Cameroon, sang in front of thousands of spectators, broken records and travelled afar to engage with his fans outside Cameroon.

So as we anxiously wait for the official release of the follow up video for released track “Tumbuboss Deluxe” after its teaser last month, the artist has teamed up with South Africa’s fastest rising rap act F.A.B in a remix which puts yet again the debut single on centre stage and gives Cameroon another boost as a contender in the African entertainment industry.

Wait...if you have been on planet Mars these past months, let us fill you in that “Hein Père” by Stanley Enow currently stands at nearly 415,000 views on youtube; a first and a huge record for a Cameroon based artist. Bam!!

So here it goes...enjoy!!

PROMOTING THE BAKA PYGMIES IN ASSOCIATION WITH GLOBAL MUSIC EXCHANGE

The British High Commissioner to Cameroon, H.E. Brian Olley hosted a Baka music performance and documentary 
projection at his resident in Yaounde on the 14th of March 2014.
The aim of the event was to promote the rights of the Baka pygmies and to lobby government as well as other development partners to help in protecting the forest which is the natural habitat of the Baka people as well the centre of their culture and livelihood.
The event was done in collaboration with a UK charity Global Music Exchange - GME also known as “One Heart” by the Baka people. According to the leader of the charity Martin Craddick “their objective is to raise awareness of the plight of the Bakas by showing people the beauty of the culture of these people who are loosing their home as a result of excessive forest exploitation and government forest policies”.
British High Commissioner to Cameroon, H.E. Brian Olley, in introducing the projection of the a the documentary produced by renowned BBC journalist Phil Agland said “though some work has been done by the Cameroonian government in the area of basic education to assist the Bakas, a lot is still to be done for these people often considered as second class citizens to regain their place within Cameroonian society”.
The guests at the event some of whom included Commonwealth Minister, Joseph Dion Ngute, Basic Education Minister, Mrs. Youssouf Hadidja Alim and the head of the UN system, Mrs. Najat Roshdi; were touched by Phil Agland’s film which focused on the effects of alcoholism, bad forest policies and human exploitation on the Baka people and their way of living.
Music and dance was also in the agenda with the guests of honour the Baka dancers and singers performing spectacular musical pieces for all those present.
Having worked with Martin Craddick on a show before, we must say he is doing a fantastic job for our indigenous people. Thank you Martin!

ADIEU LAPIRO DE MBANGA...WE WILL MIMBA YOU TARA.

Oh what a very sad sad day for us today March 16th as we learn of the passing of this legend, the socially conscious music artist Lapiro de Mbanga.

Lapiro aka Ndinga man real name Pierre Roger Lambo Sandjo used his music to speak out on the many challenges and obstacles faced by the people of Cameroon putting himself in great danger.

Recently released from prison where he was sentenced for his critic on the constitution change, Lapiro had made Buffalo, New York his home together with his wife and 5 of their 6 children.

We have truly lost a treasure. We are thankful for the music Mr Sandjo. Thank you for being a part of our childhood and adulthood - bref, part of our lives. We will mimba you...

A tribute from Dora Decca below...
"...Pourquoi gémis-tu sans cesse o mon âme? Réponds-moi. D'où vient ce poids de tristesse qui pèse aujourd'hui sur toi? (A.de L). LAPIRO DE MBANGA...Que ton âme repose en paix."

WHAT'S NEW 237?! NEW VIDEO RELEASES!

Hello dear DC readers so what new stuff have we got for you today? Well only today 2 Europe based Camer artists - PBrodaz and Miss Lena released their new videos to the public.

Maryland based duo PBrodaz who are not new to the music scene released "Kokoriko" which also comes complete with its own dance style featuring makossa legend Petit Pays who recently has been reinventing himself again by collaborating with Camer's young urban stars.



What do you get when the old meets with the new? When Douala is fused with French and pidgin? "Kokoriko"!!! On danse Kokoriko ce soir?! Watch it below.



Belgium based Miss Lena, a protegee of Stanley Enow's Motherland Muzik has had a spectacular entrance into the Camer music scene. Her cover of the biggest Camer track of 2013 Hein Pere gave her the attention and recognition she deserves and also sealed her as a definite contender in our music industry. Her voice is unforgettable, a breath of fresh air and unique.

The video for "Give Me A Sign" shot by Adrenaline Studios in Cameroon is simple yet effectively conveys the love message of the song.





You can hit her on Facebook, Skype, Twitter...just give her a sign!! Watch the video below...



Sine is one of the Camer artists who had a very successful and rewarding 2013. Fresh from his stint before Hilary Clinton in the USA and his smashing collabo with Petit Pays, he is back yet again with another collabo and this time with "Zoblazo" crooner Meiway.



The track/video is entitled "Je Te Ya Mo"...watch it below...



Is "je te ya mo" fast becoming the most used title of a song by Camer artists? Can you name us another artist who has used this title in their song?

And that's it from us today!

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMEN'S DAY!!

Across the world today March 8th, women (and men) of the world are celebrating the "woman."

As we also celebrate here on Dulce Camer we would like to take this opportunity to quote you this from Hon. Julia Gillard, the 27th Prime Minister of Australia. We hope it will inspire you all.

“International Women’s Day is our opportunity to reflect as women on how far we have come and what more we need to do to make sure women everywhere have the opportunity to write their own story.  Changing the world, like living your own life well, requires a sense of purpose, the courage to pursue it and the preparedness to risk the most public of failures. Nothing big was ever achieved by cowering.”

Here below are also 10 simple inspiring lessons put together by some women at the top of their game.

WHAT'S NEW 237?! #NEWVIDEORELEASES #TRENDCAMER

Hello dear readers, it has been a few days since we posted apologies. So today we wanted to bring to your attention to a few new video releases currently making rounds around the Camer showbiz scene.

Here they are...


"Bennam" is a modernised Western Highlands influenced track by Hope Music Group signee Michael Kiessou. It is great to see how our culture can be reinterpreted and brought to life in the 21st century. The track was produced by PhilJohn and mixed and mastered by DK Kriss. Kudos to NS Pictures for shooting the video. Enjoy!




This is a very good song from 4 piece group Da Thrill who gained notoriety after winning the Nescafe competition. The video for "Je Te Yah Moh" was released at the end of January this year. The styling could have been much better nonetheless the track itself is so good! Check it below...




France based Franky P Davodva seems to be an already recognised name in the Cameroon music scene and recently he dropped a high class video for his track "On Fait Ca Bien" shot by Cameroon's number one and highly acclaimed video director Shamack. The video depicts a playboy jetsetter who really knows how to "fait ca bien" with the blings, the chicks and the drinks in the club. His style is much Americanised with a hint of Matt Houston. Check it below...




"Afe Nkap" by rapper Ngoma has been on the lips and Facebook statuses of many and we could not wait to have this video on our blog especially after seeing the teaser which was released at the end of last year. With a highly original video, a highly original song and a highly original flow by Ngoma, this definitely makes one of our best track and video for 2014. Kudos to Adah the video director. Watch it below...



The Cameroon entertainment industry is slowly moving in the right direction...kudos to all working hard to make this happen.

Until next time...Stay sweet
