HOW CINA SOUL MADE HERE COOL ON M.ANIFEST'S "NO WHERE COOL"

To tag M.anifest as gifted is illegal because the 'godMC' is more than gifted. His words play and his au fait with the English, Twi and Pidgen cannot be overlooked across the beautiful melodies he throws on our way.
The award winning rapper brought all that to our doorsteps on his new album 'NO WHERE COOL' which has actually made the music industry not so cool for lazy rappers because the bar has been raised far from their reach.
Nowhere Cool made up of 14 songs served in English, Twi and Pidgen is pregnant with thought-provoking messages of love, money, struggles and other life lessons fused with traditional African sounds and Hip-Hop rhythms.
 Songs on the album are No Where Cool, Invisble, B.E.A.R, Hand Dey Go, Hand Dey Come ft Worlasi, Rich People Problems ft. Tumi Molekane, Palm Wine and Whisky ft. Dez Kwasi.
The rest are Sugar and Goodbye both ft. Brymo, Cupid’s Crooked Bow ft. Nomisupasta, Simple Love, Ozymandias ft. Paapa, Damn You Rafiki, Time No Dey ft. Worlasi and Now Here Cool ft. Cina Soul and Ama Ata Aidoo which is our interest here.

Cina Soul who in real life known as Christie Quincyna Quarcoopome took part of the reality show Vodafone Icons Remix Edition of which M.anifest was a judge. She took the Cina because the time she was at the Vodafone Icons Remix Edition, people couldn’t pronounce her full name. The ‘Soul’ in her stage name is because she is a soul singer.

One might think that probably because she took part of the reality show and M.anifest was a judge, he deemed it right to feature her but the truth is after listening to 'NOW HERE COOL' on which the beautiful Cina Soul was featured you would know that the slot was created for her and her alone. She actually sang her heart out with a voice purer than sunshine and sweeter than springtime. Her voice power and clarity enveloped the entire record waking up our attention and taking us on a sweet melody trip to a place cool we have never experienced before. Indeed Cina Soul is everything a soul singer was,is and to be and we are glad to have here in this generation.

Fortunately the soul singer has blessed us with an awesome EP titled METANOIA which possesses songs which are not 'musically handicapped' but would rather give the listener an 'eargasm' they would enjoy for a longer period of time.
The songs include Julor which features M.anifest, Lolonye ft Worlasi, Awo, Mama No Like Me, Baddo ft KiDi. You better check them out and how her voice can make wherever you are cool.
