Te Dam, the first musical baby of Emilia Mvogo

Having proven for a long time in the busiest nightclubs in the capital city (Le ZENITH, la RESERVE and Mont Fébé) that she has singing capabilities, Emilie Mvogo has shown an entire new confidence with the release of her first solo album Te Dam where she worked for several years in the studio with Billy Mercury Ngomane.

Inspired by her experience Te Dam speaks of daily life issues and the problems people face. It is a song enriched with a rhythmic diversity like Folklore, Merengué and Bikutsi.

With this album, Emilie’s interpretation stands out which will attract the attention of critics. To this former model it is what she identifies herself with. Love, happiness, pain and ingratitude are the themes of her album. It is loaded with six tracks to discover and enjoy.

1. Ngon Mikama, puts an emphasis on the charms of the resort not far from Obala in Lékié where the artiste comes from.

2. Cri d’amour (whose video was directed by JPM Pictures) in a languid momentum demonstrates the versatility of love that can come at anytime and anywhere, without seeing it coming.

3. Itam made known the sad fact of the ingratitude of our loved ones, who do not hesitate to stab us in the back when the opportunity comes.

4. Te Dam, or self- attitude is to help the listener remain calm when faced with any situation.

5. Allonger is a pure bikutsi song that talks about betrayal, infidelity and the insatiable nature of married men. To complete the album, Emilie pays homage to her mother with Mema, a title which talks on irresponsible fathers who shamelessly leave the responsibility of taking care of the children to the poor mothers.
