PJ Isreal Hussein and Galaxy J. One hit Africa with "E MAKE SENSE", their debut.
They are passionate, serious and dedicated to their course. At last, they made it. A debut album is not always an easy task. They have been into music for a long time and I always knew there is something in them that will explode into the dream they have always lived.
I was with them at the University of Buea and have watched them record at Slim Records. I have even featured in one of their tracks recorded by Big Slim himself, at Dirty South City.
This album titled in Pidgin English “E MAKE SENSE” literally means “there is a lot of meaning in this”. These guys rap in three languages; French, English and Pidgin. I guess that is one of the characteristics that makes them the masses’ choice. They do both singing and raping and filled in this 14-track album is a whole lot of emotions, truth and education behind the songs.
They are my pals. We shared the same dream. They are now ahead of me and I am happy they are making it and looking back at us. They both took the pains to personally deliver an autographed copy of their CD to me.
I will send them a mail this night requesting for permission to put up their songs on CamHooD. I hope that doesn’t go against the contracts they have signed with their sponsors and producers.
To learn more about them, meet them at their official website www.zionside.co.cc
I listened to the entire album, and I must confess it rocks. It is quite amazing that African independent artists can do this much even on a very first album. You didn’t make any mention of where the album was produced, but even before I saw it on the CD case, I guessed it right – Nigeria!!!
It is time we develop the music industry in Cameroon and make it affordable so that our guys won’t have to travel across borders for a release.
They aren’t on CamHooD yet?
