about

This song was written to mark the 50th year of independence of The Gambia. It is a song which celebrates the country and its people both inside the country and those in the diaspora, calling on them never to forget their homeland. Gambia is renowned for its peaceful nature and the people are reputed for their warm and open hearts. This song is an important homage to the country that has given me so much throughout my life, and is also a pledge to my commitment of giving back to the country through my work in education and through the music I create that will always carry the name of The Gambia throughout the world.
