“Not For Sale”
A bubbly, tropical
marimba, dripping in a fondue of sweetened, afro-trap percussion and
chocolatey vocals form the delicacy that is “Wonka”; an
introduction to Kenya-born, Los Angeles-based singer, Victoria
Kimani’s, sultry masterpiece, “Afropolitan”. In only seven
tracks, the Afropop Queen effortlessly weaves a work of ebony
excellence. The deep, afrobeat grooves on tracks such as “Should
Be”, “My Sweetie”, “Boom”, and “Not For Sale”, paired
with their infectious R&B/Pop palettes, paint the portrait of a
masterful creative. Most indisputably, Victoria has conquered the art
of blending native rhythms with wide-reaching, mainstream melodies.
And her voice is the cherry on top. On all of the tracks, she floats
dreamfully, suspended in an atmosphere of reverb and harmony, through
lyrics of love, lust, and perseverance. With each breath on this
project, it is as if the records become more and more contagious.
“Afropolitan” is boundless in range and application; being just
as ideal for parties, the car and the club, as it is for a night
alone. Considering the rising popularity of world music, and this
flawless offering from Victoria herself, don’t be surprised if you
see her name popping across the Billboards. She can’t be more than
months away from international stardom.
