Music of The Soul........2003-06-30

I want to let the potential buyer know that this CD is not in English but, I'm willing to bet that you'll sing along anyway.I have listened to this CD so many times that I sing along in the exact words yet I don't speak the language.The rhythym is infectious.They harmonize well.The african rhythym is superb!This CD,the music touches your soul and it made me feel extra proud to be an african-american woman with music running through my soul and in my body.Any and everyone should appreciate such music of the soul.

Can you say "BLAND?".......2002-04-19

When will I ever learn?? I saw an ad for this CD on an insert in the super-hot Raul Malo album ("Today") so I thought I'd check it out. Expecting some of the fire in the 'grooves' of Raul's CD, I instead was treated to boring muzak in the Sade / Madonna vein. I recommend this tedious dreck to insomniacs and would-be 'trendies' in search of the next 'big thing' in their dreary lives. Exotic?...NO! Cool?....Definately NOT! Dull?....You betcha!!

AWESOME!.......2002-03-23

This CD is awesome. I'm a big electronica fan and this CD borders on the lines of acid jazz, jazz, and trip-hop. The voices of the duo are smooth and gorgeous and the songs are all so good! I have listened to this CD so many times that it's probably gonna break very soon! This is a great downtempo classic! I can't wait for their next CD!

Music that captures emotions.......2001-10-25

I have to say I really enjoy Les Nubians,and their style of singing. The style brings it all the way back to Billie Holiday and the jazz age. The girls also seem to capture the essence of the whole African experiance as well. I noticed that their logo is that of a scarb beeatle,which is a sacred sighn to the Nubians and Ancient Egyptains. The other tracks like makeda tell the story about the black queen of Yemen known as Sheba. The favoriet track of mine is the Princess Nubieans. The vocals on that track is wonderful and also matches the production. The two singers hail from Cameroon and one I think is the result of a interracial couple,not that matters. There is one thing for sure these two women can sing their heart out and produce such a soulful album. The quality matched in this album is quite rare these days. Most singers don't have half the soul these two women have. Hopefully more will learn from them,and stop it already with the cheap bubble gum crap .
