JJC - We Are Africans (Video)

As you do ya thang, lets turn the telescopes to other areas of the continent that are down there thing too.

We Are Africans" is the powerful new single by JJC (digital release date 24 October 2009) which embodies the meaning and significance of Black History Month. "We Are Africans" combines the sentiment of pride with clear messages of unity and positivity. Serious, but also fun, tongue-in-cheek and wildly infectious, "We Are Africans" is an anthem - in fact it could be labelled as the national anthem for the United States of Africa, a concept which signifies the fortification, unification and reinvention of Africa and Africans across the world.

Nigerian-born and London-based songwriter/ rapper/ singer/ producer JJC aka Skillz first rose to fame when he formed Sony Music act Big Brovaz (their first single "Nu Flow" was a worldwide hit). He then went on to produce for Lemar, Jamelia, Ginuwine, Liberty X, Booty Luv and many others. Alongside these mainstream production credentials, he created pioneering Afropean group JJC & 419 Squad, where he was the producer, songwriter and main vocalist. During this time JJC became a mentor to Nigerian superstars D'banj (current MTV African Artist of the Year) and Don Jazzy.
