"Usiku" conveys a powerful message about sexual assault and the rape of young girls. It evokes empathy and the urgent need to protect children. The song tells the story of a girl being abused by a guardian. Traditional and folk elements support the message with well-chosen African rhythms. The composition possesses the touching innocence of a children's song, contrasting sharply with the shocking narrative. A great voice with clear diction is sensitively accompanied by the musicians. I love this song! Congratulations!" - Regula Curti, Founder

“’Y.A.N.A.’ incorporates Ghanaian highlife influences, which are intricately woven into complex African drum rhythms, creating a rich and inviting foundation. Lyrically, it seamlessly blends Pidgin, English, and African vocals, with lines such as “Baako y ni nkabom” (oneness brings togetherness) and “Kaakeeee esoloboi esolomieee” (don't tell me I look different), promoting unity and mutual support. This track is a classic example of "World Music" at its best.” - Wiyaala

“I chose ‘Speak Your Truth’ because of its energetic fusion of Jazz, Hip Hop, Rap, R&B, Soul, Reggae, and Rock, celebrating the musical diversity of our world, both culturally and experientially. Just as the composition asserts genre identity, the lyrics similarly address the politics of identity, immigration, displacement, and the search for a better life. Despite the challenges, we not only "manage" (as we say in my part of Africa), but we also insist on our right to speak out for ourselves.” - Wiyaala

Lyrically, ASAP speaks to the transformative power of love and empathy, suggesting that in a world of darkness, even a small amount of light can make a difference.

It underscores the rapid, detrimental changes happening globally and the need to confront our true feelings rather than feigning happiness. The lyrics emphasize the necessity for a paradigm shift to elevate our collective consciousness and promote genuine internal change for a brighter future. The repeated plea to "stop the killing" and "stop the fighting" reinforces the importance of taking control and collaborating to achieve peace and understanding.

"Proper education is the right of every person and vital for the well-being of every country. I have chosen this powerful song because of its important message.

The two voices tell a story that is urgent not only for women. It is time to invest in education. The instrumentalists underscore the voices in a sensitive, poetic, narrative way. The song has a lot of potential to be heard and inspire change." – Regula Curti, Founder

"'Domino' is a cool groove, an electronic fusion that blends acoustic and electronic instruments, with a saxophone adding a soul/jazz vibe. The overall sound creates a modern, danceable beat—the kind of song you could easily dance to in a sophisticated nightclub. The combination of Ga (a Ghanaian language) and English adds an exotic flavor, suggesting empowerment and the ripple effect of individual actions, much like a "Domino Effect." The lyrics, “It all begins when we break / From all we know and let fall like dominos,” encourage us to initiate change by stepping away from the familiar. "Domino" prompts listeners to take an active role in their lives (“Got to play a role, here we go”), emphasizing the importance of participation and choice (“You either take or let it go”)." - Wiyaala

It highlights the suffering of the poor, the rise in suicides, and the wealth gap. It calls for love, peace, and harmony as solutions to these problems, emphasizing that war and hate cannot solve anything. The song advocates for a more compassionate and caring society where everyone helps each other and works together to create a better world. What a beautiful message, and the reggae beat supports this perfectly.” - Regula Curti, Founder

"'Dancing for Justice' succeeds compositionally because the music resonates with the lyrical themes of freedom and unity. Musical and geographic traditions shine through at different moments, creating a dynamic and harmonious whole that invites the listener to dance and reflect, much like the ebb and flow of the sea itself. Lyrically, the ocean is used as a metaphor for life’s depth and mystery, which can be both beautiful and treacherous. The song speaks to the human spirit’s desire to navigate through life (“eu vou navegar”) and to find joy even amidst challenges (“encontrar a dança no olho da tempestade”). "Dancing for Justice" also touches on social themes, urging us to refrain from prejudice and to respect individual freedom (“o corpo é dela, ela é livre”). It is a romantic and poetic call to live vibrantly and authentically, like the ever-changing sea. I loved it!" - Wiyaala

"The song delves into the struggle to understand a complex world filled with political and cultural conflicts. It reflects on the challenge of staying kind and resilient while feeling overwhelmed by these issues. A central theme is the desire to connect with a "hidden frequency," symbolizing a deeper truth or inner peace. The lyrics also express frustration with having one’s voice dismissed, especially when trying to share personal insights. The track fuses Neo-Soul, R&B, and Global Music, resulting in a captivating groove. The use of English and Shona, a language from Zimbabwe, adds cultural depth and authenticity, making this piece powerful and thought-provoking.” - Konstanze Wiedemann, CEO & Founding Member
