Upper Stars Recordz * mentaltunes rec. * Itropica Music * Mental Balance Records: Manadi Lopa

MANADi, which means "sit & share together" in his Sisaala dialect, is from Tumu,

an African village in the Upper West Region of Ghana. Manadi is a humble & soulful artist

who speaks to audiences through positive, socially motivated & political songs.

An insightful songwriter who walks the line between Roots Reggae & African Zongo music

(sung in English & language). Manadi's life in Africa was devided between Nigeria & Ghana,

where he was exposed & influenced by the indigenous Zongo' s of these regions.

In Ghana & throughout Africa, Zongo' s are known to be found in the ghettos.

Passionate about his culture & need to keep it alive,

Manadi' s music encompasses these beautifully rich & traditional Zongo flavours.

Zongo music traditionally incorporated balafon (xylophone), molo (2 string gourde guitar)

& kalangu (talking drum). Now living in Australia, additional Western instrumentation complement the traditional African with language, drumbeats & guitar rythms remaining untouched.

Manadi sings of his own enlightenment through songs that resonate universally.

His tracks explore human connection, daily struggle, positivity & embrace his enduring belief

in the transformative power of love in all of its incarnations.
