The one-of-a-kind Latin band, COPA SALVO, and the one-of-a-kind Messenjah, Karamushi, have teamed up! This is big news!! The collaboration started at the anniversary party of the shop World Kitchen BAOBAB in Kichijoji. They were scheduled to perform together on stage at that time, but due to the spread of the novel coronavirus, it was postponed, and they quickly changed their plans to a release. *This release will be a CD single with two songs. The first song is based on the Latin masterpiece, "Negra Tomasa," with Karamushi cutting through the coronavirus pandemic with his lyrics, full of the unique satire only a Messenjah can deliver. Isn't it extremely rare to hear Latin music featuring Kete drums, which are usually heard in Nyahbinghi and Roots Reggae? The contrasting atmosphere of the chorus is a highlight, complementing the lyrics. Topical, controversial, and brilliant. The second song is a re-recording of Karamushi's masterpiece, "Marianna," in a new Latin version. "Marianna" re-imagined in a Latin format is, of course, also brilliant!! This song proves that a masterpiece remains a masterpiece no matter how its form changes. This is a song that should be passed down to future generations, singing about this current time, so that years from now, when things have settled down, we can say, "There was a song like that, wasn't there?" This is a piece of music that should be preserved in a tangible form, and it is now being released with great anticipation!! ◆ KARAMUSHI (Vo. Kette Dr) ◆ COPA SALVO Tadahiro Masuda (Cho. Per), Eri Konishi (Key), Akira Shibui (Ba. Cho), Makoto "Baku" Owada (Gt), Keiji "KG" Wada (Per), Koichiro Osawa (Sax) *Leader Hironori Kobayashi and percussionist/master of ceremonies Peach Iwasaki were unable to participate in this recording due to the effects of the novel coronavirus.
