Please take the - FAKENESS - OUT of the Sawubona Music JAM !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good Day to ALL,
oshilli ngaipi ghazzies,

i am a bit confused about this whole Sawubona Music JAM, - please dont get me wrong i support anything for my Home (AFRICA) and what the people are doing to promote african music.

But the music that i hear on this site which is supposed to go onto the final Sawubona Album, is NOT even COLSE to any music that is done in southern Africa, 90% percent of the music on here is reggae music (reggae music is NOT - AFRICAN!! =i t is a style that some of the african people have adopted from JAMAIKA) also the way they talk on the ongs is NOT even close to AFRICAN.

i really support this project, BUT please DONT mess it upü for us AFRICAN musicians, by showing the world the wrong side of african music, by using the NAME - Sawubona for the Project, - or maybe try to intergrate MORE real AFRICAN artist to work with international artist (and not just hav - international artist make songs, they THINK are AFRICAN)

i hope you dont get me wrong on this one, i am not someone who waist precious energy on hate, or anything, THIS was just something that bothered me, like everytime, i got on the site, ana checked it out.

I wish you guys still a lot of success and luck for the future, adn HOPE we can still do great music together for a GOOD cause!

peace na respect

EES

I just took my guitar to the shop. I am removing all the thin strings. I will replace these with the same gage as the thick ones and tune it to drop C modal...... I'll keep you posted......

Hi Carsten, bin heute seit langem mal wieder auf Sawubona gewesen. Hast du die Geschichte mit den Digital Musicians schon gesehen oder getestet? Wie geht es so, was macht die Musik?   Gruß Conny

cd review

by Norman DarwenThe first four tracks encapsulate Arkansas-born Billy Jones. ...a wicked, raw, live version of Albert King's 'Personal Manager', 'my Hometown', a bleak, stark portrayal of the ghetto set to a busy but laid-back and bluesy musical commentary that epitomizes what some have defined as his "gangsta bluez" (...though it is perhaps even better on 'Ain't Good Lookin'), the rocking, rollicking, down-home, and subtly Howling Wolf inflected 'Blues Comes Callin'' and the bluesy/ reggae…See More
