| To Reveal Art And Conceal The Artist is Art's Aim - --- Oscar Wilde(The picture of Dorian Gray
.. CDBABY LINK for KALU JAMES: The Way I Feel -- Email address: Kaystone001@yahoo.com The voice of Kalu James will linger in you, compel you and make you care. Hailing from Nigeria, Africa, Kalu James brings to the table emotive, genuine lyrics with his remarkably epic, unique and unforgettable style of vocal delivery. Touching on delicate subjects with eloquence and vivid imagery like in his politically charged song "Mr. Majestic" , where Kalu illustrates the necessity of ending violence ("we can't go ..ping bombs like they are skittles and m&m's all over the world"… ) and "Freedom" , then easily changing it up to bring us to the places of love and tenderness with songs like "Fallin' In Love With You" and "You are Beautiful" , a stirring homage to the people of his native land. Kalu James will capture you, challenge you and change you. Written words don't communicate the scope of Kalu's passion or approach. Recordings convey the spirit adequately, but the best way to experience Kalu is to see him live. The songs and moods take on lives and possess an individual energy of their own, transporting you to where he wants you to be and allowing you to feel what he wants you to feel. His messages are potent and important, and there has never been a time when an artist like Kalu James was more necessary than right now. His debut CD entitled "The Way I Feel" was released in 2006, currently working on the Sophomore album "Dim The Lights" Bio Written by Dan Ball.. |
