Cameroonian rap artist Jovi releases debut LP, Humanity Is Vanishing (H.I.V)
Ndukong Godlove Nfor aka JOVI, is a prolific emerging rap artist from Cameroon whose versatility and immense talent has been gaining worldwide attention with even Akonâs US based Konvict Records label getting hooked on his style. The music history in Cameroon is about to be re-written and JOVI is the perpetrator and at the centre of it all. The much talked about rap star has just made a landing; a big landing to be felt not just in Cameroon but eventually within Africa and far beyond in the release of his much awaited debut LP. Humanity Is Vanishing or H.I.V is a classic debut LP somewhat autobiographical but also a masterpiece for our listening pleasure, hinting at mankindâs evolution from a natural state to a rather dysfunctional and artificial lifestyle. The LP has been carefully produced with a pain staking emphasis on the background materials of each and every track. From JOVIâs melodic and catchy simple rap style to his signature bell sounds as a producer under his sobriquet Le Monstre; the traditional gong sounds from the grassfields area of West/North West regions of Cameroon heard in tracks such as âAchombo Houseâ featuring Krotal (another legend within the Cameroon hip hop scene) add a soothing yet rhythmic element to the album as a whole. From the very first track âDon 4 Kwatâ, the scene is set for us the audience to expect more from this LP and its artist and he sure does not fail to deliver. JOVI introduces himself as the âdonâ and a don he is. A similarity with Che Guevara seen on the album cover art portrays JOVI as being the revolutionary figure at the helm of this new style outcry which is about to completely change the face of music production and artist management in Cameroon. From track to track thereafter we are led through a beautiful musical journey where the production quality speaks for itself, where the old and the new sit side by side effortlessly interfaced especially in tracks such as âPitiĂ©â featuring Rochereau Tabu Ley and âBush Fallerâ featuring Eko Roosevelt, Cameroonian pidgin, English and even French are magically juxtaposed and married together to create musical orgasms in the listener in tracks including âMan Pass Manâ âLapiroâ âNothing to Somethingâ âYou Never Knowâ. The LP also draws us to the everyday lifestyle in Cameroon with references to the expectation the women place on their men to how the young men hustle to get by and street slang references â…a di lop, a di jong, a di vamouse, a bi di bolo, wepe, peter, etcâ added to everyday Cameroonian products such as âMamboâ, âCerelacâ, makes this album a celebration of the beautiful and the ugly in Cameroon. The album also introduces us to the MuMaK family with collaboration from label mates Elad, Magasco, Rachel, Will Kan, DeeCey and gospel singing artist Renise whose vocals gives us a pleasant end to track 13. H.I.V is an LP designed to not only draw in the younger crowds but also create awareness amongst the older music lovers. JOVI is a new star right out of Mabanda, Bonaberi (in Douala, Cameroon) with a bright future ahead. With a debut LP like this, it is evident that JOVI and his team are capable of a lot more. H.I.V is available to buy if you are in the US on iTunes: http://itunes.apple.com/us/album/h.i.v/id547296597 and Amazon US: http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Ddigital-music&field-keywords=Jovi+H.I.V as well as Amazon UK: http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Ddigital-music&field-keywords=JOVI-H.I.V. The LP will be available on Spinlet for Android mobiles as well as other online music outlets soon.

LISTEN: Kush Keef ft. Ras Kuuku â E Go Be (Remix)
![](https://ameyawdebrah.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Kush-Keef-x-Ras-Kuuku.jpg)
Whoever made the decision to put Kush Keef and Ras Kuuku on the remix of this song certainly made the right decision.
Both artistes sank in deep with the fitting lyrics and melodies for âE Go Beâ Remix. Â
Many (Ghetto) Youths are really facing it hard during these times with economic downturns and most of them have given up on their dreams and hard work; nonetheless, there has to be a voice for the voiceless, thus, Kush Keef recruited Ras Kuuku on this new cut.
Â
âE Go Beâ Remix is tipped to be a new street anthem for the streets. The song has sparsely lose lyrics but with yet explanatory rhymes which carries the message across. The infusion of local dialect in the song also creates some originality and typically talks to the Ghanaian hustler on the streets.
Â
Released across all major music platforms, the song is available for streams and download.

Â
The release of the music videos for âSijibomiâ and âMy Babyâ from the EP captured the hearts of audiences worldwide, garnering impressive views on YouTube, Facebook and Instagram, catapulting Kush Keef onto the Afro-Dancehall scene.
Â
Recently signed by the US-based music record label, Rovl Entertainment, Kush Keef is excited to share his banging beats, relatable lyrics and unique style with music lovers around the world.
