Mr Leo
Cameroonian mbolé-pop star Mr Leo previews tracks from his new album, Good Vibes.
Mbolé-pop star Mr Leo shot to fame in 2015 with his first single E Go Betta. It was one of the biggest tunes on radio and TV that year – not just in his home country of Cameroon, but all over west Africa.
The singer-songwriter woos audiences with his melodious love songs and infectious dance tunes, fusing Afrobeats with home-grown mbolé music, a blend of the rhythms and sounds of Cameroon like makoosa.
In this episode of This Is Africa, we preview tracks from his brand new album Good Vibes and Mr Leo talks about the difficulties he faced on his musical journey.
