Nsimbi, a Ugandan-American duo formed by Ugandan hip-hop pioneer GNL Zamba and American world fusion artist Miriam Tamar are set to release their Infinity EP this week.
With the mission to create positivity and uplifting art, this EP is a celebration of Ugandan/East African consciousness as the sounds are recorded, mixed and mastered in East Africa.
“We are all here as individuals, with our own journey to follow, but it’s through human connection, shared humanity, community, love that we find meaning. When we love each other, our love transcends time, through generations, through friendships, through communities- we become infinite, as love is infinite. This is the spiritual philosophy that brought life to the 5 track Infinity EP,” said GNL.
The Infinity EP is launching this Friday with the first single off the EP titled “Mbaga” being released in September.
On this EP there is Infinity itself, Rainfall, Essubi, Mbaga and Timeless.
All Infinity EP tracks were recorded at African Bureau of Music and produced by Kuseim. Mixing and mastering were done by Theweezy. All songs were written and performed by Miriam & Ernest Nsimbi.
Building on the acoustic sounds and indigenous instruments of Africa, NSIMBI blends contemporary elements of “Lugaflow” hip-hop and spoken word with English/Western songwriting and vocals to merge the traditional with the modern.
