Today’s tune is dedicated to Sophie Bernard, a great promotor of Ethiopian music, modern and traditional. She was recently in Ethiopia, working with different exciting artists and on other projects , and also supporting my music shop to the max. Painting and serving. When driving to Dire Dawa together for an Oromo music raid, I and her was rating about 50-60 cassettes from 1-5 stars. This cassette got *****. Thanks dear friend!
Umar Suleeyman is a modern hit amongst Oromos. With only bass, keyboard and vocals, this artist still manages to vary every song. The energy is present to its limits. Have not found any cd releases by this guy, but his cassette albums goes from No.1-12. After listening to 9 of them I’m still impressed. This is Umar Suleeyman of Ethiopia. Woboo. Enjoy!
