Cameroonian Afro-pop and RnB singer Steve’Slil presents his new video ‘Diana’ directed by Didiblaise and Filmed by Dr Nkeng Stephens. The video portrays how matrimonial love can be devoured by the fangs of jealousy and covetousness. Quite an intriguing African tale to savour.
Steve’Slil has the killer instinct
to enter into the hall of fame of reputable urban music acts in Africa. His
musical prowess and versatility to effortless switch from one genre to another
is breathtaking . After releasing a phenomenal singles "Ebangha" and
"I cut you cafe", the Cameroonian sultry R&B/Afro-pop songster
has gamely resurfaced with a life-enhancing love and marriage story incorporated
in a soul-searching song titled "Diana" . He describes
"Diana" as a musical marriage between post- independence highlife
music and contemporary Afro-pop harmony. In essence, "Diana" embodies
the traditional harmonic rhythm which could be dubbed "Palm wine
music" , married with western instruments. "Diana" incarnates
the folkloric tone popularly chanted during the post-independence era. The song
is an expression of love and appreciation to God (Eta Mandem , thank you ...)
for giving a beautiful wife who deserves all the sacrifices a man can make,
just to make her happy; "na with you I go fly , America, Europe, Africa
, to Asia coz you be my baby" . Steveslil's vocal timbre and delivery
perfectly gives the groove the song deserves.
