Daddy Lumba Returns, Even More Poisonous

Daddy Lumba Can he wait any longer? No! Ghana?s undoutedly largest hi-life musician (or Kojo Antwi, if you don?t mind), CHARLES K. FOSU aka DADDY LUMBA can't afford to see another X'mas pass him by without giving us a new -lyrically suggestive- anthem to mime into the New Year.

Come December 22, 2003, Osei Kwame Despite's Despite Music Production, longtime distributor for the artist's personal label, Lumba Productions, will release ?Bubra?, title of Lumba's latest opus on the local market.

Keen radio listeners would recall that at exactly 5:21pm last Friday, two of the album's lead tracks, ?Bubra? and ?Pony? were, as usual, premiered on, Despite's Accra-based Peace 104.3 FM by drivetime host Fiifi Banson (one chap who will kill to be the first to play a new Lumba album).

In the meantime, don't expect daytime radio to give your ears any peace as it gets ready to blast the album's first two tunes times without number. And if you're thinking that you could hear any other tracks, apart from the two, on radio, think again because Lumba's strategy is to limit radio DJ's to just the two tunes for now, "so that listeners would have to feel the other surprises when they purchase the entire album". Lumba, who returned from Cologne, Germany on Sun Dec. 7, told Verus, a stringer for Ghana Music.Com and also the editor of a new music magazine (MusicBiz). Verus had the chance to 'feel' all tracks on the album and can confirm that there're more 'typically-Lumba' cuts you cannot wait to hear. The album was programmed in Ghana and mixed by Bodo Staiger of Reiklang Studio, D?sseldorf, Germany.
