JP Bimeni & The Black Belts "Free Me" CD
The reincarnation of "King of Soul" Otis Redding! JP Bimeni is a talented musician who brings back to life the true charm of 60's soul music with that tasteful atmosphere and overflowing heat, and shouts for freedom with a voice filled with his soul!
JP Bimeni is a descendant of the royal family of the Republic of Burundi in East Africa, and has lived in London since the early 2000s as a refugee after experiencing many hardships, including the civil war in his hometown. His authentic "soul" is filled with love and loss, hope and fear, the tragic experiences and dramatic life experiences he has had, and will free all who listen to it! Soul fans who like classic 60's Motown and Stax will be instantly captivated.
Great voices and arrangements...this is early Stax/Vault/Atlantic all over. True soul fans will love this. --Kev Darge
