Vanessa Mdee is one lady that is both attractive and has musical talent to match. Her rise should not shock any person that follows the East African music scene in detail.
When she collabod with Ommy Dimpos on their hit song me and you, a neutral observer could tell that this lady would be going places. But where she has gone even I could not believe was possible. Apparently, she is to do a collaboration with the president of Gabon, Ali Bongo Ondimba. A president I repeat!
Who knew presidents could sing? I thought their most marketable skill was selling lies and shit as truth and gold. Anywho, the collaboration will also include the talents of jazz musician Fredrick Gassita.
Ali Bongo who is also close friends with Fredrick Gassita was once a musician who started out by playing the drums but now also plays the piano. Fredrick Gassita and the president own a production house called afrojazz house.
Bottom line is this is a milestone that will be hard to beat for many a musician. Good for you Vanessa! Here are some of the photos she shared of her with Frederick:
