BIOGRAPHY _ Nkeng Alemanji

I wanted this to feel like you and I were having a conversation, so I wrote this Biography using first person (I), instead of third person (he).
I used to fall asleep with the radio on...

I was born in Cameroon in 1977 – to a civil engineer, and a teacher – my Dad’s a funny and brilliant gentleman, and my Mom’s a giving, intelligent lady. (I was born early in February ‘77, when it was still ‘the year of the Dragon’, in the Chinese lunar calendar – so I’m on to great things (ha ha))

When I was seven months old, my parents moved the family to Canada. There I heard songs by artists like Paul Simon, Prism, ABBA, John Denver, and… the Smurfs! (ha ha) My mom (who enjoys country music) also played Don Williams, and Dolly Parton records. Listening to these artists, I believe, is where I began to learn the art of songwriting. [full bio]

 Promo video: Funny, melodic, attention-grabbing, this video introduces you to Nkeng Alemanji - the singer-songwriter, TAXI describes as having "an appealing quality in [his] voice and in [his] songs that is engaging...".
See the spontaneous, entertaining Nkeng perform his songs, including "You Remind Me" - a moving tribute to Dr. King, awarded Suggested artist, by Song Of The Year (Vh-1 Save the Music) songwriting contest.
