Royal Messenjah and Baba Blood to raise the Gambian flag in Senegal



The duo left for the neighboring Senegal to attend the annual event organized by ‘Hot Sauce’ in Sokone, Senegal. Royal Messenjah and Baba Blood are one of the country’s most crafted and brilliant reggae heads. The “I cry” and “Gambian musico nyato dorong” hit makers are will be on a two week musical mission to put the Gambia on the entertainment map in various shows to be held in Kaolack and other places in Senegal, and thus to ease their plight to export their works across the border. According to Messenjah ‘we are going to use this opportunity to promote our up coming albums in Senegal and do some collaborations and networking with other artists and musicians there to bring about everlasting relationship between the two countries’ He said.
Royal Messenjah is widely respected in Senegal and this is the fifth time he have been going to grace the annual event with fellow Gambian artists as a grand patron of the music movement which was named after ‘Hot Sauce’ a reggae artists movement in the Gambia.
Royal Messenjah is recently doing final touches on his debut album due to come out soon with Baba Blood producing most of the songs and giving vocal assistance like a brother’s keeper. In two weeks time, the two young reggae heads will come back to the Gambia to put the remaining “explosive works in progress” together.
