Old stuffs from many years ago, maybe not the best recording and all but yeaaah. 

Dreaming while those lotus blossoms blink, blink, blink. Lulling in the river where we sink, sink, sink. Down to that bright and weary ivy sea, under soma fountains, with a banjo on my knee, singing 
Yippie Ki Yay Yay Om! 

All them Texas girls like to swing, roll, and sway, their third eye's open wide like sapphires all ablaze. All the dancing legions, like the wings of manta rays, or the scintillating rhinestones in mandala braided lace. 
Yippie Ki Yay Yay Om! 

All them Texas girls like to swing, roll, and sway Spinning for their queens on a kiss of moonlit beams do-sie-do with Kitesvara's thousand arms of light, through the veil of Maya as it’s brushed with ease aside 

There ain’t no place to find you love, I’ve searched down low and everywhere all above Dance like Shiva the flames of love arise , and crush the heads of babes the ignorance of mind out of mountains, steam dragon trains haul away illusion’s pain Yee-hare!! 

On a tiny seahorse there’s a cowboy that rides with shiny sitar pistols, and a pearl of mother’s smile A flask of old amrita, with a taste you can’t ignore and boots of Naga scales, from the waves of Meru’s shore, singing Yippey-Ki-Yay-Yay-Om, Yippey-Ki-Yay-Yay-Om 

This Kali Yuga’s coming round the round, down the path the breath of incarnations in the waving prairie grass, the sheafs of grain a gathered by the swinging of the scythe, neither waste of tugging early at the shoots which give it life 

All them Texas boys like to punch, shoot, and dip countless universes in their black tobacco spit the flowers from their navels, on an ocean milk and cream in a blinking eye, a dream, in the back of Vishnu’s jeans 

There ain’t no place I can find you love, I’ve searched down low and everywhere all above Dance like Shiva the flames of love arise, and crush the heads of babes the ignorance of mind out of mountains, steam dragon trains haul away illusion’s pain. 

Yee-hare! Yee-hare-hare!

THE ALBUM IS COMING AUGUST 2nd!
As a child, I had a truly magical time with stories, and my mom reading them to me. The way she intonated and impersonated each character was just so fascinating to me. Her voice was the music I always heard before falling asleep, and as soon as I would actually fall asleep, the music kept going. Which was and still is sometimes a torture as much as a pleasure.

As an artist, I always come back to that child and those stories. They still resonate with me but on a much deeper level. The notes now combined with colors and smells, patterns become a dance or a soundscape rather than just a melody. So, I splash with my watercolors palette and watch the music as it merges with the world, and I invite the listener to this never-ending journey.

“The Little Prince” was one of my favorite stories, one filled with quiet moments and hidden meanings, mystery, and gentleness, and humor - the kind of story that haunts you all your life. This story holds a philosophy that I resonate with: I feel myself just like the main character - wishing to create my own worlds, organize my thoughts according to my personality, and not to be put into the frame of adulthood. I feel the rebellious urge to wake myself up from a grey existence and use all the colors, humor, sounds, and smells that exist in the story of the Little Prince.

It became even more special since my son was born. We painted the Little Prince on the window in a daycare room, the home daycare I used to run in our own house before embarking on the journey of a composer. At that time, we were surrounded by music and art all day long as my children grew up, and I was experiencing their enchantment with music and the Little Prince once more. In 2021 another miracle happened that was also related to the story: I received an email from Leipzig Ballet, asking for permission to use two of my compositions for their ballet show based on "The Little Prince". All that inspired me to write an entire album dedicated to the story.

I am extremely grateful to my family: parents, children, and a wonderful husband who allows my inner child to grow into an artist. I believe we all need the magic of a storytelling experience, and I tried my best to awaken all the senses into it.

A preocupação de mostrar a riqueza do povo africano que se faz cada vez mais presente no Brasil e em outras partes do mundo. É partilhando deste sentimento que a dupla de World HipHop Dois Africanos lançou no dia 17 de maio, o primeiro disco, intitulado “Primeiro Passo”. O CD tem 14 faixas e abordar assuntos como a integração do continente africano com o mundo, a realidade do povo africano, a mistura presente na cultura afro-brasileira e a juventude.

Além do CD a dupla lançou dois vídeo clipes, “Eu sou de lá” e “Primeiro Passo”, com rimas em português, francês e inglês que exaltam a garra dos africanos, a dupla faz ecoar o grito pelo reconhecimento do valor do seu povo.

Em “Eu Sou de Lá”, Opai BigBig, de Benin, e Izy Mistura, de Togo, evidenciam a preocupação em desconstruir a imagem generalizada de pobreza e miséria propagada pelo mundo sobre o continente africano. Segundo eles “na África existe um povo forte, que luta muito para alcançar seus sonhos e superar as dificuldades”.  Sentimento este que é cantando no trecho “Cada sonho tem um preço/ o meu me fez deixar minha terra/ Oh, meu lindo reino”. Apesar do tema sério, o som propagado em “Eu Sou de Lá” é dançante e alia a suavidade do R&B de Izy Mistura com a voz emblemática do Pop Rap de Opai BigBig. O clipe hoje se encontra no Youtube com mais de 130 000 visualizações.

No clipe “Primeiro Passo”, música que intitula o primeiro CD da dupla, eles cantam a vida quotidiana deles no Brasil. Uma vida compartilhada entre estudos, casas e musicas com muita saudade da família que eles deixaram na África para estar aqui atrás de sonhos como fala um trecho do verso do “Izy Mistura”. 



Dois Africanos no Brasil

          Dois Africanos é uma dupla de World Hip-hop (Pop Rap e R&B com varias influências musicais) criada em 2012 no Brasil. O objetivo da dupla é mostrar a presença de ritmos africanos na música de outras partes do mundo, assim como unir sons culturalmente difundidos na África com a roupagem da nova música pop mundial. Originários de países que possuem o francês como língua principal, a dupla aportou no Brasil em março 2012. Desde então se encantaram com o país e aprenderam português. 
 
As letras cantadas pelos Dois Africanos retratam a vida dos jovens africanos que buscam sonhos em outras partes do mundo. Em todas as músicas é possível notar a presença das línguas portuguesa, francesa, inglesa e de línguas africanas locais, como Mina e Fon. Além da Paraíba, a dupla já fez shows nos estados de Pernambuco, Ceará, São Paulo e Rio de Janeiro.
 
Origem 
            Opai BigBig iniciou carreira na banda “3ème Monarchie” do Benin, permanecendo no grupo entre os anos de 2005 e 2011 e gravando dois álbuns. Izy Mistura começou sua carreira em 2007 com o coletivo “M16” do Togo. Ainda em seu país, se tornou líder da banda Street Angels entre 2009 e 2011. Como cantor e guitarrista, também apareceu em várias colaborações artísticas no Togo.
