“NO STRESS” 1er Single de Zepekenio by AMN
A quote from Frederic in Abidjan who sent me the track:
“The track was made to honor the party spirit so often demonstrated by Ivorians in the face of adversity. We wish the year 2011 to be free of any stress and fear for the Ivorian people and all the nations (Haiti, South Sudan, Somalia) facing uncertainty.”
–Chief Boima
