“The Journey Aflame” is the debut album by Connecticut-born rapper Akua Naru. Grooving hip hop peppered with a mixture of blues, jazz, soul and African sounds - that's how you could describe the musical diversity of the record. A compilation of 13 very different songs adorn the first official work by the “passionate poet”, as she describes herself. Akua received musical support from New York rapper Blitz The Ambassador. German soul singer Mic Donet, who has performed on stage with Erykah Badu, Outlandish and Carlos Santana, is also among the guests. Producer team TheDrumkidz are responsible for the production. Further beats come from platinum producer 7inch from Berlin and the Cologne beat makers JR & PH7, Macka and Robi from Dickes B! as well as Till Schneider.
