DA*J*LA (which means "River Tigris" in arabian language), is considered as "one of the french singers who is able to be as good as u.s. soul artists" (Liberation). From her first record, Soul Poetry (© Undercover records, 2006), to her brand-new one, The Meaning of Life, Dajla and her sidekick, Benji Blow (producer), deliver their timeless AFRODELIC SOUL in a more and more sensual and beautiful manner.After a come back from african lands that four exclusive tracks recount on The Motherland Maxi, their new project goes further in their musical (and cosmical) journey... through soul music, blending hip-hop, electro-funk & afrobeat inspirations in. The result is subtle and elaborated melodies which support peaceful sings as well as spoken words or raps. The list of the notorious artists who feature on that album should improve the idea of how international and talented Dajla is.
