Ntjam Rosie is 28 years of age. She has style, she looks gorgeous and is a gifted musician: ?I am an artist. Not a singer, not a sing-a-song-writer, a model or a teacher, but an artist. I dig into my cultures and make my art from them.? Her music could be labeled as Jazz or Afro. But it is more than that. She jokes: ?It is 2011, that should at least make me a New Age Jazz Singer.? It is the ?right here, right now' quality of her compositions that makes her music exciting and meaningful. Her music takes place in the present. She does not indulge in retro elements but simply roots in them. Her songs are a perfect mix between lyrics, the chords, the music itself and the style.

"I am giving all that I am, and I am giving that with a lot of pleasure."

Ntjam Rosie is inspired by today's Western and African cultures. ?People move all over the world. We are cross cultural people and as a cross cultural community we share a sense longing. Everybody comes from somewhere and at times we still long for that place. Everybody wants to belong. That emotion is universal and belongs to today's global lifestyle.
