This is because his poetry, his multi-genre specialities, his genius of creating things out of nothing, have surprised people right from the beginning of his earthly life.

Hubert is a poet (influenced by poets like T.S. Elliot, Ezra Pound, William Shakespeare, W.H. Auden, Walt Whitman, Christopher Okigbo among top notch writers), a lyricist

too.

He is a dreamer of a better world, one full of love and happiness. His mantra is "...We Should All Work Together For Our Beautiful World."

Marty Cohn, once with Warner Brothers Records for seven years (and who helped in the signing of Christopher Cross, Tower of Power etc).. said Hubert "..can easily top the charts in Europe."

Ron Carlson of the "Shakin' Katies" and who once played bass guitar for the HUBERT TEMBA BAND said "playing with Hubert was like being in the HUBERT TEMBA EXPERIENCE..."
