“As I embark on the second chapter of my music career, I want to share a part of my story. I am Gambian. My lyrics are delivered in Mandinka, one of the many beautiful languages of my country. My songs are a representation of our stories, our journeys, our trials and tribulations as Gambians,” he stated following the release of the cover photo.
The music star added that Kombonka is The Gambia's Kombonka and his music, whether through language or instrumentation, through story or vibes will always be that of The Gambia to the world.
“My story is the story of a young man that did not complete "the back-way" journey as intended, but I know that my destiny is not meant to be travelled on any other path than ‘SILAKANG’. I hope that you will travel the road with me,” he noted.
