FREDDY WILL™
is storming the entertainment stage on October 10th, 2010 with a colossal new release of his fourth musical effort entitled 'DARK HORSE FROM ROMARONG... a city of kings’, as well as with his second  literary offering entitled, ‘THE DARK ROAD FROM ROMARONG.’ 

 

In December of 2009, FREDDY WILL™ announced that the album had been completed at THUNDER DOME SOUNDS in Ontario, Canada and that it was produced by the legendary JUNO Award winner, Jazz musician and producer EDDIE BULLEN. Earlier this year (2010), it was re-announced on his official website www.freddywill.com that the new FREDDY WILL™ album recorded solely in the ‘Creole/Krio’ language of Sierra Leone is scheduled to be released worldwide.


“There are only two guest appearance on this album”
FREDDY WILL™ explains. “The guest on this album are none other than Eddie Bullen, who is a Grenadian and Canadian Legend in the Jazz Industry and Carvin Winans, who is a 6 time Grammy™ Award winning gospel legend. Carvin has been a mentor to me as I made my transition from a life on the streets and into the music and literary business.  Working with him has been a blast and as someone who grew up in a huge gospel family with his brothers Marvin and BeBe and his sister CeCe Winans, I have come to admire his wealth of experience”

 

To note: there is one English song on the Creole/Krio album titled 'Save’ which features Carvin Winans. Save' is an emotionally charged environmental and socially conscious hit song which calls for a global intervention to levitate extreme health and socio- economic pandemics in the  world. 


 

"I wanted to create a record which would challenge me. I didn't want to feature too many people either. On this album, I put my streetwise twist to West African storytelling which I think is needed in today’s’ art form. Then I stretched my vocal range between rapping and singing melodies on the verses (or in the hooks) so that I can prove to myself that if I really wanted to, I could sing. I noticed a few rappers singing hooks and I wanted to see what I would sound like. However, I won't be singing a lot on my future records”, he explains with a smile.


Romarong’ is the former name of Sierra Leone. The album describes the lifestyle of someone who is of African heritage and is influenced by the Afro - American lifestyle. It engages listeners with glimpses into the life of a younger generation of African immigrants and second and third generation Africans who were born and raised abroad who have become influenced by western civilization without omitting core traditional African mythologies from their mentality. 


Also, it is about a younger group of Africans who embrace the new world while making most advantageous references to several places around the world where they may reside’. Freddy Will explained. 


Dark Horse From Romarong... a city of kings’ & ‘The Dark Road From Romarong’  are both set for release in a deluxe package along with a new edition of his first book, ‘My Book Of Chrymes’ and a copy of his latest English album entitled While I’m Still Young … The Talking Drums 1.2v’. Both are currently available for physical distribution and licensing in West Africa.
