Bio / Background

Emmanuel Njoh Njoh was born in Bonewonda (CAMEROON-AFRICA), a beautiful village colorfully described by song writer and novelist Francis Bebbey in his best seller " Le fils d'Agatha Moudio" ( Son of Agatha Moudio). He grew up listening to thousands of melodies from his father: famous accordionist Franklin Williams NJOH ETONDE. As a child, he was particularly interested in learning the African communication drum called ELIMBI, and eventually became extremely skillful in playing it. He often made community announcements with it and performed as a percussionist in a big variety of groups. As a teenager, he became one of the best high school drummer of his generation, and was often invited to play in professional bands. He is the creator of the beat " Makossa pop" that was later called "Waka Waka" by his band leader and personal friend Ashanty Tokoto.

Haven come from Cameroon and now listened to this album, the songs have given me hope that Makossa is once more on the rise. The blend between the traditional musical essences and what the modern ear is prepared to listen to makes these songs so acceptable to the tympanic membrane. Kudos to Emmanuel Njoh Njoh whom I had never heard of before. Skippamyke
