Today's Music Thursday is all about Canadian based artist Miss BK's song and video for "My Baby Remix" featuring Cameroonian music icon, Annie Anzouer released on June 24th .
What
is the Song My baby all about?
My baby is the (baby song) from my upcoming album
which talks about the magic and power of love..inspired from a real life story of
a Heart broken girl who after a devastating heart break she decided to forgive
her long term boyfriend and move on . The moment she did she realized
that “Heaven doesn't ignore cries of a broken heart.” Just like a dream, this guy who swept her off her feet and
showed her what it meant to love and to be loved. This girl describes her feelings for the new guy with words like " E bi like say na voodoo e di use" It was a magical experience for her and she fell
head over heels.
What
is the message behind the song?
My baby song passes the message that it’s not the
intensity of the love that we feel for someone that makes our love last but the quality of the person we
fall in love with that makes our love last which makes the love experience even much
more special and enjoyable. The quality of love and the quality of the person
you fall in love with can determine the end of the relationship.
Annie Anzouer is one Cameroon's music icon and a great talent of the older generation, Why did you choose to feature her in this song?
Growing up I loved music and had people in the
industry that I admired and wanted to be just like them or more. Annie Anzouer
happened to be one of the Cameroonian based artist and Music icon I admired and
listened to back in my childhood days. I told myself that if I ever want to
collaborate with a home based star then she will be the first on my list and it
happened just like that. When Annie came to Montreal, Canada for a concert by SPN production, I
received her at the airport. I had a chance to sit
with her in my car and she listened to my complete album. When she came across the "my baby" song, she asked me to pause and ."that’s the song,
that’s the hit , I will like to sing on it " and I gladly said "Mama Annie it will
be an honor to have you sing on this song". We went to the studio and
recorded the song at Mich 2050 production house in Montreal and here we are…
Why
another video for the same song?
Good question. After sharing this experience with
Annie, I decided it was good if I could as well share the same good feeling and
vibe we shared together in this song to the world and this could be well
portrayed in a video format Which I thank my relentless and reliable team for
making this journey easier for me to travel.
What
is the inspiration behind your upcoming Album
It’s a fusion of upbeat rhythms with a feel
of Afro pop, afro zouk-highlife and afro Rnb feeling. Everyone,
young or old will enjoy something out of it. the songs a melodious, inviting,
catchy and the story lines connect to our life stories and experiences.

two beautiful daughters, Mandy hill and Serena hill, Meiway , Annie Anzouer ,
the born Canadian/Haitian artist Ish and
the Canadian/Italian pop Singer Nadia Dolce.
What are the five things you cant live
without?

music again.

Apart
from music what do you like to do?
