Beautiful Nubia: Buy

JANGBALAJÙGBÚ, Beautiful Nubia's third music album, was recorded at the historic Afrodisia (Decca) Studios in April/May 2002. The album showcases the exceptional songwriting talent of the artist, as well as his sweet, soulful vocals, and highlights the dexterity of his youthful 14-member Roots Renaissance Band. The 13 songs on the album exemplify the strong, positive message-music that Beautiful Nubia is becoming known for. The analog recording is earthy and subdued and has a bittersweet effect on the ear. The listener can imagine that they are hearing, for the first time, music from the past and yet, there is nothing static about BN's music. The style is refreshingly new.

Lush vocals, evocative drumming, robust horns and a tight arrangement define this, the fourth music album by Beautiful Nubia and the Roots Renaissance Band. In this collection of songs so full of conscience, wisdom and wit, he asks us to tarry a while and reflect on what true brotherhood should mean. He also encourages us to enjoy this precious gift of life. This is a recording by a gifted artist, a master lyricist, and a soulful musician at the top of his game, backed by some of the most promising musicians and singers in Nigeria at the moment. Music so full of joy, and the occasional melancholy, you can feel it deep in your soul!

Beautiful Nubia and the Roots Renaissance Band follow up their highly successful 'Awilele' album with this collection of fun-filled, reflective and educative 16 tracks of pulsating neo-traditional music. Fèrè once again showcases BN’s unique modern African music with meaning.

Kilòkilò brings together the diverse elements upon which Beautiful Nubia’s music has been built throughout his decade of recording, fusing the didactic with the spiritually elevating and the gently grounding. As usual, BN comes with a message of hope and love. Of renewal and growth. Of a place where we can have peace if we learn to share of ourselves so that others may smile. In this album, Beautiful Nubia’s ability to fuse ancient tradition and rhythms with contemporary sounds reaches a distinctly new level of achievement. In summary, you will love the music!
