Dr. DRATZY: SETTING THE RAP PACE!!!

Born Anagho Denroy Etamo to Daniel and Jane Anagho on 14-01-94 second of 4 children, Dratzy grew up in BDA City, Cameroon.He attended the best of schools in the country, building an excellent academic profile which is the foundation of his poetic and inspirational lyrics. Got interested in music way back at only 7 of age. His early music exposure was mostly pop culture but destiny led him into the realm of hip-hop. Started composing at 13 while in Sacred Heart College Mankon and consequently sought to articulate his emotions, thoughts, visions, ambitions and ideas in a rhyme and rhythm fashion. Succeeded to gain local popularity around town but in a quest for greatness by optimizing his potentials and harnessing his brainpower, he decided to step up his love for music from a hobby to a pro  eventhough his studies still occupy first-place.In September 2010, he dropped his debut album; “My Philosophy” directed by D-Pres an produced by the big up studio, Emcee 22 Recordz. However this did not go so good with its marketing, though making it big in the local market. The big one has however landed; "Opt For The Optimum", his second studio project which he hopes captures an international audience and spreads his fan base. The album was launched sometime this October 2012 an has already gone far and wide, making headlines all over the globe, thanks to the internet and its vast means of publicity. A multitalented dandy,Dratzy is an excellent soccer player with an air of chic that is an authentic blend of trends.An extrovert, jovial, funny, inquisitive and a good talker, he is perfect company with a therapeutic gift of choosing the right words to console,comfort and motivate.His other hobbies include; reading the Bible, partying, surfing the net and networking-meeting and making new friends.He is set to obtain his undergraduate degree in Economics at the Catholic University of Cameroon where he is presently studying.With such talent,determination and optimism,nothing can deter his prospects of an auspicious future……Become a fan by liking his Facebook Page “DRATZY” or follow him on twitter @dratzydiamonds.

Still too young and too strong to give up...Dr Dratzy stays focus with his team of Ceejay Production


                                                                                                                                    

RENISE

Renise is one of the biggest when it comes to that blend of gospel, culture and modernization. She is just so awesome and cannot fail to be in our list of Cameroon's rising young stars in the music world. Her pretty ebony and bright eyes captivates you as soon as she gets the mic. You never want to stop gazing. Her tracks as ''Holy Wata'' and ''Fire'' produced by the non contestable February 16th music studio can testify her talents and brilliance in Cameroon music


               

SHIFTY B

Shifty B, that's how every one knows him. But his mom and dad will take Kimeng Boris. This guy has some real shit stored up in his brain and just needs a pen, paper and an M.I.C to make you feel his own kind of world. Rap is his stuff. He does it from Busta style to Eminem and then the Lil Wayne way. Shifty dropped it in his debut single of "SOS; Shifty Outta Sight". That track is breath taking and will never be outdated, mark my words!!! He still doing his thing in music but not letting go his bigger one of MCing. Yeah, doing it in boogies and all you can think of.

JAY

 With his hommie, he doing it in "Fluri Boyz" Focho Afa aKa Jay is that guy who will bring us back to the world of R n B. Jay is schooling at the university of Buea and making it big at that end, being the name heard on campus when it comes to music from Cameroon by Cameroon. His video titled ''Girl Friend'' has left people wonder how he came about such good stuff in Cameroon. His swag and style as well as love for fashion brings out that artistic taste you will want to get. Jay has been for the DAMA awards and still stands a chance for many more.

GASHA

Gasha is her name...this girl got talents!!! With her guitar, she will dig deep into your soul and refill your loss. More of country music, Gasha brings Cameroon to that level where we begin to feel Canadian and European. Pretty and young as she is, she still is a wonder to many with her works of music. Doing it with her DeeJay Pazzo in Yaounde, Cameroon, the girl just makes people go fly. That lyric, that rhythm, that voice and that beauty, all mixed up in one person-TIANA GASHA. ''You and Me'' will never be contested against!!!

                                                                                                       

MBONJOH

Yongho Lloyd is his name. Pretty calm and never heard, but he brings out that meaning each time you get his lyric. Aged 20, his inspirations from T.I, Eminem, MJ and Chris Brown got him on his paper, mic and feet. Mbonjoh works with the TLM studio along side DeeJay Tezo and DeeJay Lenjo. That voice and lyric will pull out the tears when it has to, and do the reverse-pull it off when need be. His work with the TLM Studios: ''Forever me and You'' has proven his worth!!! There is more to come...

JAY JAY

 Born 7 12 94, Jay Jay is so unbelievable as far as pop rhythm is concerned. This young star is making his way to the top in Cameroon music industry. May seem one of the youngest but most enlightened artists in Cameroon as his songs have gone far wide around the globe. Noted for his cute nature, he won't stop getting the girls fanning at his view. His tracks such as ''Home again'', ''Wild party people'', ''Far Away'' and lot more have gotten all eyes and ears on him. Still making his debut but made great achievements.

YAN DOLLAR

Yan is that big name when it comes to rap stars. Finishing up with secondary and high school in his country Cameroon, Yan went on to pursue his dream out of the country. Based in Germany, he has done it B.I.G out there getting all the ''niggas'' and ''bitches'' do like....''WOW!!!" With a number of mix tapes and collabos, Yan has done a lot of concerts and shows getting his fans scream out and jump to the beats each time he on that mic.

HOW TO SUCCEED WITH MUSIC IN CAMEROON

    Many Cameroonians have that ambition in the music industry-to make it big. However this industry in Cameroon still faces alot of difficulties as succeeding in it is not as easy as elsewhere. Many problems are being faced by most Cameroonian artist especially when it comes to the phase of marketing their products. However this is unlike in the past where artists in Cameroon made it big in their careers. The reasons are evident,
    First of all there is no very big ready market to consume most of the Cameroonian musics. Cameroon has a population of about 20 million people. This is so small compared to countries such as Nigeria. Added to that, the little market we have rather falls in for music coming from other countries as Nigeria, Ghana and the Western world and neglect or minimize their own home made musics.
   Another aspect is the advent of mordern technology. This is what has brought about piracy and all of that. Now all one needs to do is get a CD and copy the files on his PC, he has a whole album which costs about 5000 frs.
   But then, the issue now is not just identifying some of these plagues , but trying to see the solutions to our artists. Well as for me, I fell all we need to do is adapt if nothing can be changed.
    To make it, use this method: Do a good hit track which you are very confident of. Do a video of it. Try to make it played on almost if not all the radio and TV stations you can ever think of. Once this track and video is good, you start getting famous. People start hearing about your song without even knowing you. The next thing is that they start wanting to know you. Once it has reached this level, begin organizing shows, accepting invitations to performances etc. Just very soon, you will have big performances through concerts organised by large firms as MTN, ORANGE, GUINNESS etc. Once this has happened, then know that you are a successful Cameroonian artist. Let's see some examples in Cameroon;
-X-Maleya
- Lady Ponce
- Jovi (Don for kwat)
- Charlotte Dipanda
- Adah (Nyango)
- Ice Eric
ETC
   You realize that all of these artists have an album, yet it was only one track in that album which they saw to be a hit track and publicized it widely so much so that they are so famous today. This in a bit is how I feel Cameroonian artists should do in order to succeed in their career.

SHE'S RENISE AND SHE REIGNS

Yeah, pretty girl and awesome music. Renise is one of the few Cameroonian artists who has embrassed culture and gospel in a blend with mordern music. Renise, a girl from Mankon village in th e Nprth West Region of Cameroon works with MUMAK RECORDS in Yaounde and has come up with great songs such as the striking ''Hply Wata" thich will not let people set their eyes off their screens each time it comes up. Her humble, friendly and ever smiling nature has made her fans proud of her even out of her records. She has only begun, yet everyone falls for her style. Her dressing and chorography in music is just what has never been before. English, pidgin english; french and mankon dialect are her frequent languages of expression. This makes it a superb blend as everyone in Cameroon and beyond will get her message. Renise still has a long way to go and needs you support. Cameroon people, join hands and support our rising star and our future hope. Join renise on facebook and twitter at;
