Only a few revered and influential musicians, better defined as legends, can last for 25 or more years in the music game/industry and remain relevant.
　
One seasoned Spikiri “King Don Father” Mofokeng, a deserving member of this elite list, has reached this feat and embodies everything it stands for and more. A guaranteed and consistant hitmaker (”Current”, Trompies’ “Sgiya Nengoma”, “Vokol” by Alaska, “Vat & Sit”) over the years, he has managed to stay true to what he is, does best and reinvented his music over and over again to stay relevant, and still maintained that killer “Spikiri” signature sound.
　
His 25th anniversary celebration album “has reached him at the Top of his game” and he says he still takes his job seriously. Led by the hectic single “Ngeke Balunge” (featuring Teargas, Bricks, Madluphuthu, Skhokho and Brown Dash) and the Siyarokha (featuring Louie Vega, Minister Fikile Mbalula, Greg Maloka, Oskido, Mr Selwyn and Alaska), Spikiri says that the album is testament to his longevity and his chosen music genre - kwaito. “When I get into the studio, I go in there to do a better project than the last one,” says the Trompies member. “I don’t rest on my laurels, always respect my fans and always put in more than enough energy into my work, afterall, ‘you are only as good as your last hit’ .”
　
Separated into a Red and Black discs that features an army of more than 60 previous and newer collaborators, this is a 28track offering that demands space in your music collection. The red album features collaborators such as Professor, Big Nuz and Speedy on the highly spirited statement maker “Umoya” that also signals the return of the Boss; the 25-years celebratory “Something to Remember” featuring Zakes, Ishmael, T-Rolle and Mr Selwyn, Abomrapper Flabba, Hhp, Pro rocking a kwaito beat with the legendary Baby Gee on “Mini Sket; Thebe, Mandoza, Magesh, Mjakes, Robbie Malinga on the vibrant “Don’t touch my phone”; Stoan, Doggz of War, Skhokho appear on the playful “Abo Nice”, delivered in a an unmistakenly Pretoria lingo and XiTsonga; “; the explosive “Woh Bus” features Baksteena, Gunman, Speedy and Bouga Luv; Junior Mabhokodo, “Pikinini” showcasing Alaska, Bhelekazi and The Kids; Professor, Brown Dash, General (GTZ) and Tira are on “Skeem Sam”, and hitting with a hip-hop beat on the sizzling “Fire” featuring L Skills, Stoan, Bhelekazi and Mzebbs.
　
Demor and Bhelekazi kick off the deeper with a tinge of house Black Album with “Stop it I like it”, “Mantjontjelana” features Gurash, Mzebbs, Thabs Le Madonga, Skhokho and Bhelekazi; Fox, Dogz of War, Diliza, Gizmo on the stupefying and honour bestowing “King Don Father”; Alaska, Brown Dah, Jairos, and General team up on the fiery “Kamjakajaka”, “Gangsta Love” featuring Brown Dah, Bhelekazi, Skhokho and General; “Better Days” featuring Bantu Soul; and Masheleng riding with Speedy, Stapora, Mzeyks, Benzy, Guffy, Ma7 and Thabs Le Madonga on “Come “n Go”, Crowded Crew on “Lebekere”; Sparara with Sparara, Fox, Mzebbs and Navy; Mgiftana, Skhokho, Brown Desh, Mzebbs and General are on “Uyabona Manje”; Bloq featrues on both dics’ “Africa’ and “Africa” remix, and more.
　
The star who has produced for a varied list that includes Bongo Maffin, Kabello, says he loves working with different artists, hence the army from various genres that are part of this album. “They are just as responsible for my success,” he says”, “they add their own element to my music and inspire me. Yes, my music can have my signature sound, but there is a crowd for HHP, Pro, Kabello and they also add other elements that are loved by many. ”
　
Spikiri says working on this special album was very emotional. “This has to be the best album I have done, and its clear proof to all the doubters that kwaito isn’t dead. It won’t die while I am still alive,” he quipps. “It wasn’t child’s play as many artists/producers couldn’t reach this level and could’t sustain their careers. I have managed to do music that both the young and old; doctor or lawyer; labourer or manager, or anyone can enjoy.”
　
He adds that there are many ways to change with times. “This can be through working with various artists, through lyrical content or musically. “I was there at the beginning of Durban kwaito with Professor and look where it is now. I do many sounds, but maintain my signature. U can’t miss that Spikiri Bassline and it defines my music. Add to that the fact that I always go out to create a classic album. I deal with quality and celebrating with that hardcore kwaito genre that they say is dead. This is talent that God gave me”
　
Defined as kwaito itself, he has previously worked with Skwatta Kamp, Busi Mhlongo, Hugh Masekela, Don Laka to mention just a few. Beside being a solo artist, Spikiri is a member of the long standing Kwaito outfit, Trompies, and he is one of the co-owners of the Kalawa Jazmee Records hit factory – an independent record label that has been kicking some ass and taking South African music to another level and introducing it to the four corners of the world. Spikiri’s amazing talent has seen him doing the signature tune for Mzansi’s most favourite soapie Generations and now he is on another mission.
Kwaito is Alive… We bow down to you King Don Father.

BIO

Chris Rob Bio (Extended)

Sharing the biggest stages with some of the greatest R&B legends, jazz lions and hip-hop heavyweights in the game, Chris Rob has established his presence on all fronts as a pianist, singer, songwriter and producer. Just as a true point guard is a rare commodity in the NBA, Rob’s musicianship and ability to get the most out of his fellow musicians has given him the reputation as an MVP alongside music’s very greatest.

Chris Rob’s most noteworthy accomplishments to date include his performance with Stevie Wonder at President Obama’s Pre-Inaugural Ball. He is featured on Kanye West’s Grammy award-winning album Late Registration and has served as Music Director for John Legend’s Get Lifted Tour, which culminated in the DVD release of John Legend: Live at the House of Blues. His latest single “Sex. Money. & Drugs” is scheduled to be released on the soundtrack of Tyler Perry’s forthcoming film We the Peeples. When Rob is not on stage or in the studio, he’s working behind the scenes as the stage director for his brother, comedian and actor Craig Robinson (“The Office”), as well as classic hip hop artists Pete Rock & CL Smooth and Black Moon.

In Rob’s case, doing what he does best involves gracefully crossing over genres in every performance. From the age of four in Chicago’s South Side, he studied classical piano, and quickly learned drums, bass and guitar. By the next decade he was in jazz clubs, refining his skills and developing his unique stage presence. Rob cites the Godfather of Soul, James Brown, as his chief inspiration, along with Herbie Hancock, Prince, John Coltrane and Rakim. Over the span of the last two years, he has graced many stages across the globe including Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center, The Apollo Theater, The Blue Note, Essence Music Festival (New Orleans), Sai International Auditorium (India), Jakharta International Java Jazz Festival (Indonesia), Vitoria-Gasteiz Jazz Festival (Spain), The Royal Albert Hall (London), and appeared on VH1’s Hip Hop Honors and NBC’s Last Comic Standing. Rob’s latest album Mental Notes shares all the facets of his effortless gifts and has garnered recognition from soultracks.com as one of the top albums of 2010. Currently, Rob is putting the finishing touches on a live album, scoring for several independent films and will appear on Lauryn Hill’s highly anticipated studio project.

Widely recognized and praised by his peers, Chris Rob is a musician that has built a professional reputation for his distinct talent. “This brother captivates your mind with authentic funk and soul in his own sincere fashion,” says critically acclaimed DJ Spinna. Chris Rob makes a intimate connection with music that audiences feel immediately, and which Meshell N’degeocello puts even more succinctly: “His music is a reflection of who he is, a beautiful person.”

Born Aladeen Abdul in the city of Woldia in the province of Welegga in Ethiopia.
moved to Sudan at the age of four due to political instability in Ethiopia. Though his professional career in music started 12 years ago, Aladeen started singing at the age of four in his native languages (these included Amharic and later Arabic.) These early influences are the core structures, which enabled him in developing his universal style. Although Aladeen came to the US as a teen, through hard work and determination he was able to combine both of his early musical influences with the sounds of Reggae and World Beat. His major influences of these newly introduced sounds include Bob Marley, Third World, Dennis Brown and Marvin Gaye to name a few.

Aladeen sings and writes songs that appeal to the young and the old by combining club friendly and spiritually motivating music. He writes and composes most of his music. He plays guitar, bass, drums and keyboard. He can be best described as an infusion of Roots Reggae, R&B, African music and jazz.

Aladeen maintains a vision to bring his people together through music and spiritual upliftment, which can be felt in his live performances. Dynamic, energetic and sincere are a few words that have been used when describing Aladeen’s performances. Some of his previous performances include the 2002 annual Bob Marley Day Festival along side Junior P and General Jah-Mikey both of whom Aladeen helped in producing material on their CD’s. He also toured the US and Ethiopia with Maxi Priest as an opening act. He played at the Reggae Sunsplash with his band,“African Ambassa.” Although Aladeen’s first CD is in the works, he has cultivated a strong fan base in Southern California and other parts of the U.S. through extensive club performances.

Aladeen believes in hard work, persistence and determination, a quality that echoes in one of his songs, “Where there is a will, there is a way.” Aladeen is optimistic about his future in music and looks forward to use his talents to uplift the youth of today and encourage unity throughout Ethiopia and the rest of Africa in particular and the world in general. He believes that music is the greatest weapon in fighting spiritual division and injustice throughout the world “one year at a time.”

LEARNT FROM LEGENDS! Jahni’s heritage is impressive - Every branch of his family tree forks onto a legendary name! His Grammy nominated mother Judy Mowatt toured the world with Bob Marley as one of the I-Threes and now successfully records in the Gospel field. His father Allan ‘Skill’ Cole rose to fame, first as a star of Brazilian soccer then to manager and compose with the legend, Bob Marley. Even his step father is the legend - Freddie McGregor and even his siblings all are successful in their entertainment field. Legends blood runs thick in Jahni’s veins and is evident in his creative flow. He moved to America for a his college education with glowing praise for his soccer prowess but after injury he switched his interests to what he knew best, a musical career. Foolish choices hit him with many challenging set backs but he channeled this adversity into creative good. During his ‘bleak period’ he was inspired to write. Prolific as a songsmith he has teamed with many in the industry to help hone their craft. Jahni’s has learnt from legends and is mastering his craft.

AZIZ FAYE
TRADITIONAL SABAR Drumming & Dancing - SENEGAL

Aziz Faye, the Artistic Director and featured performer of Khaleye Nguewel Thi Keur Gui, comes from a long line of master Sabar drummers and dancers. He is nguewel, which means he was born into drumming. They say nguewel children are nursed from the drum. He grew up in a village called Medina, the nguewel suburb of Dakar, learning from his father, grandfather, and his uncles, the secret of the drum. After mastering Sabar, Aziz went on to master Djembe drumming as well. From a young age he stood out as one of the most talented of his generation. As a young boy he was a premiere performer in Le Ballet Sing Sing Rhythm, both dancing and drumming, and has performed with the National Ballet of Senegal. Aziz has also played (drumming, singing, and/or dancing) for many world renowned mbalax bands such as Yousou N’Dour, Fallou Diene, Baba Mal, Ismiel Lo and Mbaye Dieye Faye, as well as European artist Peter Gabriel. In 1999 Aziz was commissioned to play for Ike Quartay in his fight against Oscar de la Hoya. He is truly an artists artist.

Besides being exquisitely beautiful and exciting to watch, Sabar, it’s music, dance, and song, is used as a vehicle to communicate the oral tradition of the Wolof. Legends, myths, fables, riddles, and proverbs have been transmitted from generation to generation by nguewels through Sabar.

Sabar and the nguewel people are an integral part of the Wolof ritual and social life. The ballets depict scenes from daily life such as childbirth celebrations, harvest festivals, marriage celebrations, healing ceremonies, ritual combat, possession dances, traditional dance and drum parties and rites for the king. Khaleye Nguewel Thi Keur Gui attempts to share the wealth and beauty of the nguewel culture and bring appreciation and understanding of this tradition to its audiences. They feature an exciting collage of traditional Senegalese dance and drum forms including Djembe and Sabar. The ballet also features the music and song form of Kora, a 21 stringed harp-like instrument. The ballets reflect Senegal’s rich and varied cultures. Its members come direct from the homeland and have all performed with Le Ballet Nacional du Senegal, the country’s leading traditional dance and drum group, as well as other renowned traditional troops such as Le Ballet Sing Song Rhythm, Ballet Raka Djou, and Ballet Doudou N’diaye Rose. Khaleye Nguewel Thi Keur Gui is an explosion of colorful costumes, high energy dancing, song, and spine-tingling rhythms that come strait from the heart of Africa.

MC RAI’s NEW ALBUM COMING SOON
For More Info Visit: WWW.MCRAI.COM
myspace.com/mcr…

MC Rai was born in the southern Tunisian city of Gabes. As a youth, he was immersed in the folk music traditions of Chaabi, or Mizoued as it is known in Tunisia. He began performing at an early age, and when only eight years old, he began performing live on the local radio station.  In 1995, he began to turn his attention from Chaabi to Rai music, and realized that he could develop a style of Rai distinct from that of  Algeria and infuse it with the traits of his native Tunisian music.  Over the course of his career, MC Rai has garnered considerable attention in Tunisia as a result of successful, regular performances on radio and television. Currently he is considered a contemporary of a new generation of Rai singers, such as Faudel, Sawt el Atlas, and Abdu. While many of his contemporaries move to France to attract a European audience, MC Rai chose instead to move to San Francisco, to explore the possibility of bringing Rai music to the United States. MC Rai arrived in San Francisco in August of 2000, and has since then gained much attention performing at different clubs and events throughout the Bay Area. He has performed with well-known rai musician Khaled, Cheb I Sabbah, and shared the stage with artists such as Bonnie Raitt, Joan Baez and Michael Franti. In 2004 MC Rai began recording his debut album, Raivolution.  The name of the album amply describes MC Rai’s intentions for Raivolution.  Rai, in arabic means opinion, as well as being a form of North African music.  Thus, Raivolution is both the revolution of Rai music and a revolutionary opinion or outlook on Rai music.  Always ambitious, MC Rai decided that his first album should be a complete modernization of the Rai musical form, combining cutting edge production, rock guitar, hip hop beats and drum and bass.  And underlying everything is his Rai style vocals and traditional Middle Eastern/North African melodic and rhythmic form.  In order to obtain such an objective, MC Rai enlisted the help of producer Jef Stott in San Francisco and producer/composer, Omar Fadel in Los Angeles. 
RAIVOLUTION was released November 18, 2005

Francis Awe and the Nigerian Talking Drum Ensemble
THE NIGERIAN TALKING DRUM ENSEMBLE
Francis Awe, Director
Omowale Orisayomi, Assistant Director

The Nigerian Talking Drum Ensemble was founded in 1985 by Master Drummer Francis Awe, in response to the growing international interest in the Talking Drum. Since it’s inception, the Ensemble of drummers and dancers has educated and entertained audiences worldwide.

The Yoruba name for the Talking Drum is Dundun, which means “sweet sound.” It is called the Talking Drum because its sound emulates the tonal quality of the Yoruba language.

Currently based in Los Angeles, The Ensemble has performed at such landmark venues as the J. Paul Getty Museum, Disneyland, the Los Angeles Theatre Center, and the Celebration for Nelson Mandela at the Los Angeles Coliseum; as well as at major cultural festivals such as the African Marketplace, the Los Angeles Festival and the World Festival of Sacred Music.

Since 1995, the Ensemble has performed its annual “Day of Remembrance, Day of Healing,” to celebrate and commemorate the survival of African and Yoruba culture, and its unifying influence throughout the world. As Francis Awe notes on the African Heritage Network’s 1997 broadcast of “African Portraits.”: “You can still hear the root of African music in any music anywhere in the world today.”

It is the legacy of that music that inspires the Ensemble and destines it to reunify the human race regardless of color or language, through its music, song and dance.

The Nigerian Talking Drum Ensemble is available for lecture demonstrations, workshops, touring and performances. The sound of the Talking Drum and Yoruba song can be heard on the CD, “Oro Ijinle” (Deep Words), Francis Awe’s first recording on Bindu Records.

Future goals include the establishment of a permanent Cultural Center where African music and dance can be presented and archived on a continuous basis.

For the better part of 2 decades,NAJITE & OLOKUN PROPHECY [”N.O.P.”]
has kept authentic afrobeat and African jazz alive from its home base in Los Angeles.

Led by Nigerian master percussionist Najite Agindotan, this roaring ensemble
embraces the restless genius of Fela Anikulapo Kuti, the harmonic innovation
of Horace Tapscott and the rhythmic soul of the African Diaspora.

Many of Southern California’s best instrumentalists have lent their talent to
N.O.P. over the years- Phil Ranelin, Nate Morgan, Bobby Bryant, Jerri Jheto-
and the current bandrepresents a cross-generational accumulation of their
spirit and wisdom.

From saxophonist Jim Thompson (currently with Bobby Womack’s band) to bass
player Brafo Agindotan (Najite’s eminently talented son) to Kpakpo Addo
(who cut his chops with the legendary Uhuru Band of Ghana), the members of
N.O.P. all share a commitment to using the joyful celebration of music to foster unity
among all peoples.The music, N.O.P.’s tool of communication, is at once mythological
and urgently realistic.

“Africa Before Invasion,” an album title track, looks to the “Kings and Queens”
of the past, when “We were self-sufficient/We didn’t have to steal from each other.”

“A O Ri E O” addresses more recent history: the wars in Congo, Biafra, Angola and Burundi.

But the music’s infectious joy stands defiant in the face of the sobering lyrics.
And it is this joyful defiance that best defines the message of N.O.P. Despite all
obstacles, the human spirit will not only persevere, it will celebrate.

The Age of Goodness is upon us and Najite & Olokun Prophecy invites us to join
them in welcoming a new day.
