Creating an Afrobeat and Electronic Music fusion, Firetongue's fight is for modernity in a continent where there's no technology. Through his strong social-committed lyrics and his high sophisticated sound, he creates a journey from traditional culture to the new high-tech world with beautiful melodies and crazy tempos. He has become an international reference in today's African music, and he is producing a 3rd album which is already a must have in Myspace. .... .. ..MyGen.. ..Profile Generator.. ...... google analytics .. var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-19278272-4']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document·..('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document·location.protocol ?

Influences
Spiritual Afrobeat - Prendre le côté hypnotique de l'Afro Beat et le renforcer au moyen de subtiles touches électro : telle est la démarche de l'artiste camerounais Fire Tongue. Et le challenge n'est pas mince, car le musicien omet – délibérément – l'un des éléments essentiels de l'Afro Beat, à savoir sa charge sexuelle. Il privilégie plutôt des ambiances contemplatives, alanguies ou doucement euphoriques (les dix minutes de Praise Da Name), au moyen d'un travail chirurgical sur les grooves et l'ornementation sonore (claviers, cuivres, guitares, percussions). En résulte une sensation planante, chaleureuse, laissant penser que Fire Tongue est parvenu à tenir la promesse de son titre : celle d'un Afro Beat spirituel. Bertrand Bouard - 2009 - Mondomix - Fire Tongue Wayo Bring War L'afrobeat est une musique moderne. Tony Allen avait ouvert la voie du futur de l'Afro Beat aux côtés de Doctor L en 2000 avec Psycho On Da Bus. Fire Tongue vient avec cet album confirmer la nouvelle maturité de la musique Africaine...
