Lubiana

On her second album, ‘Belgo-Camerounaise’ singer and kora-player Lubiana shows her ability to be tender, poignant and danceable. She sings in English, French and Bangwa. She’s an avid jazz-fan (Nina Simone, Sarah Vaughan) but also inspired by 90s R&B divas like Lauryn Hill. And, of course, by the African greats like Toumani Diabate. Terre Rouge refers to the red clay of Cameroon. Love that powerful, yet sweet smokey voice.
