Asa - Nigerian soul/jazz princess

Month number 5, Task 1

Ovaj zadatak je definitivno bio pun pogodak, pošto sam već imala jedno divno muzičko otkriće, kome sam prepuštena već danima. U pitanju je nigerijsko-francuska pevačica Asa (Asha), http://www.asa-official.com/. Ova pevačica savršeno uklapa soul, jazz, world i reaggee muziku, i tako nam nudi savršenu kombinaciju eklektičnog čulnog savršenstva. Ukoliko volite da slušate Erykah Badu, India Arie, Ayo, Raphael Saadiq, Janelle Monae, sa malo primesa Tracy Chepman, onda će Asa biti pun pogodak za vas.

Asa je izdala dva albuma: Asa i Beautiful Imperfection. U nekim pesmama kombinuje engleski sa Yoruba jezikom, što daje posebnu notu i bogatstvo njenim pesmama. Slušam ih neprekidno već danima, i ubeđena sam da će mi se u tome još neko pridružiti, nakon čitanja ovog posta :)

This task has definitely been right choice, since I have already had an amazing musical discovery, in which I`m indulged for days now. The singer in question is Asa (Asha), http://www.asa-official.com/. This singer excelently blends soul, jazz, world and reaggee music, and is giving us a perfect combination of eclectic hearing perfection. If you like Erykah Badu, India Arie, Ayo, Raphael Saadiq, Janelle Monae, with a little spice of Tracy Chepman, tha Asa will be the right shot for you.

Asa has published two albums: Asa and Beautiful imperfection. In some song she combines English with Yoruba, which gives a special note and ricness to her music. I have been listening to her music for days now, and I`m sure that some of you will definitely join me, after reading this post :)
