A visual artwork for the title song off the highly anticipated EP from Njeri D called 'Look At The Times'.
“MAMA”. I wrote this song some years ago while working on an Album project with this same Arranger Richard Bourne. He had given me a cassette with ten (10) music tracks on it and I said I want to write a Mother’s Song, but none of these tracks are talking to me. The reason being, if the Music comes first, when I listen to it the vibe tells me what kind of lyrics need to be applied to the track whether militant, Lovers or sad etc. So a couple weeks later Richard turns up at my work place playing a track on the car stereo and say listen to this, and almost instantly the Lyrics pop in my head.
“Mama did I remember to tell you how wonderful you are,
Mama in my life you shine like the morning Star.” – (me lyric just start fe flow like butter pon bread) and whoops there it is, now on the - Palm Tree Label with a new arrangement, celebrating the great contribution of Mothers maternal or adopted.
Love wunna

"This new single 'My Father Got This' from Njeri D. compels you to listen to a Sweet and bouncy Reggae riddim, as he tells a story of feeling down and low, then remembering he has good reason to be strong and confident. All because of the One “who got his back.” The hook and groove of this Melody and Music will make you just want to dance and sing along".
