Christian McBride and Angelique Kidjo - Afirika

Amazon amzn.to | iTunes bit.ly On his eight CDs that precede Conversations With Christian, bassist Christian McBride has framed himself in ensemble contexts, most recently on the widely lauded 2009 Mack Avenue release Kind of Brown, which showcases the Inside Straight quintet (his return to the acoustic jazz format as a leader) and The Good Feeling, released in September, comprising a suite of well-wrought charts for an A-list 17-piece big band. On Conversations with Christian, the 39-year-old maestro places himself in the forefront of the flow on a duet apiece with "13 of my closest musical friends and cohorts"—singers Angélique Kidjo, Sting and Dee Dee Bridgewater; pianists George Duke, Eddie Palmieri and Chick Corea, as well as Dr. Billy Taylor and Hank Jones (who both passed away in 2010); violinist Regina Carter; trumpeter Roy Hargrove; guitarist Russell Malone; tenor saxophonist Ron Blake; and actress Gina Gershon. In the process, McBride unleashes the full measure of his already legendary skills, crafting as complete a portrait of his diverse interests—different vibrations of the blues and African-American church experience, bebop, the American Songbook, the Latin Tinge, the Freedom Principle, even comedy—as he has ever presented. "I love and appreciate so many different styles and cultures," he remarks. "Changing hats, going from one project to another, from a straight-ahead session to an R&B session to a pop session, has always fueled my activity. I try to put <b>...</b>

An excellent artist and a wonderful person. It's incredible feeling to hear her voice first time in live concert, go and see when she is performing near you! I hope owners of the rights want to see this as an honor to this artist, which it really is. You can see this very same video freely also elsewhere in the internet. My hope is that everyone can just listen to this wonderful musician. Enjoy! And all of her albums are still rather easy to find!
Angelique Kidjo - MOVE ON UP - with Bono and John Legend featuring the Bill T. Jones' FELA! Dancers

Become a Fan facebook.com -- Official Website kidjo.com MOVE ON UP - Angelique Kidjo with Bono and John Legend featuring the Bill T. Jones' FELA! Dancers. Directed by Kevin J. Custer. Continuing to garner acclaim for OYO, an album of music that inspired her while growing up in Benin, the album's first video for the single "Move On Up" featuring guest vocals from Bono and John Legend as well as the imagery, and appearances by the dancers, of the acclaimed musical FELA!, which is currently nominated for 11 Tony Awards. http "The success of the FELA! musical on Broadway is the indisputable sign that people are now interested in the true richness, depth and beauty of African culture," said Angelique Kidjo. "I feel that the music from my continent is a universal language that can create a bond between all the different cultures of the world and this is what the musical is about. Collaborating with the FELA! dancers on the 'Move On Up' video has been an amazing experience for me: The Musical and the song carry the same message of joy and hope for the future of Africa and for the future of people everywhere.
