    Yame's musical influence must be partially French (old school singers: Aznavour, Leo Ferre etc...), but he also has deep Cameroonian roots, as his father was a professional musician from that country. Insane talent and very original too. Voix magnifique.

    Hi J! Glad you did this. I love this song and I don’t understand a word. I now understand how Michael Jackson’s non-English speaking fans felt.
    By the way he released an official video with English subtitles. I couldn’t keep up with all of them-they go by so fast. I didn’t bother to much anyway because I watched that Colors video a thousand times already. My 5 year old niece asks me to play it. She loves music too. I love everything you love J, about his singing, vocal play, and melodic delivery. That comes across no matter the language and I’m here for it. Thank J. Love your reviews 🎉

French is a language i dont actually like hearing at all , despite understanding it due to being a Latin language like my own (Portuguese) , but Yamês performance on this one is so good it makes me want to listen to this despite the language :D
    Also would love to recommend a Portuguese singer that does RnB/HipHop called Ivandro , he is a sensation in Portugal and one of our best new voices , any song from him would be amazing to see analyzed by someone who does not speak the language!
