If you are the sort of person who is searching for new music around the world this is a perfect match for you. Directly addressing the process of building up a career as an artist, Sweet J reflects on the success of her previous releases and simultaneously offers another easy banger of a pop song with the newly released Siiri ta Gelbi. Blending pop sensibilities with creative production and an almost afro style beat and vocal meander and effect, Siiri ta Gelbi sees long-form melodies light up a whole new side to Sweet J ’s artistic catalog.
Sweet J or many formerly known as Mbaraza Joy Enosa Baburu is a talented singer and songwriter from South Sudan. She is the queen of Azande music in Sudan. She belongs to the Zande tribe and her family is from Gbudue State in Yambio. Currently, she is based in Kampala Uganda where she is doing her higher studies. Sweet J always had a deep love and was passionate about music.
First, she started singing at church when she was a child. In 2007 she began her music career professionally. Quickly people started to take notice of her sweet voice and followed her which helped her to perform in many cities in her home country and neighboring countries as well. Through her music, she talks about social issues in her country such as gender-based violence, child marriage, and building unity and peace in the country. Since 2007 she has released many albums and carried the South Sudan pride to the international level.
The production also seems to veer off in a new direction. The genre-fusing seeks to connect with the dance-pop scene, whilst highlighting a further streak of confidence from the performer. a slightly retro production, Siiri ta Gelbi makes sense as the follow-up single for Sweet J , and furthers her style and reach as an artist in a natural way.
