Gentleman and Pow Pow were in Bremen on April 26 and I had the pleasure of documenting the event which was held at Speicher 2 - Eventloft, a fairly new venue by the river Weser decorated with palm trees and illuminated by video-animations generated by two Bremen entrepreneurs Jorge Armando & Michael Suding (Miquele). The show was opened by the locals King Ralph, who was one of the organisers, with the help of Deejay Laye and then Roots Ashanti.
Pow Pow's Ingo and Junior Carl really brought the massive to the boil in preparation for the very talented Kenian singer Treesha and of course the wonderful Tamika who received a lot of love from the massive - and rightly so. Tamika had brought the young Tanzanian artist Msoke Minha with her whom she had had a show with in Hamburg prior to the evening in Bremen. He was full of energy and very good at rhyming freestyle.
When Gentleman finally came on he was in top form and frequently jumped off the stage to interact with the audience. He was joking around and hugging Tamika - what a lovely moment! - and even shared out a crate of Beck's beers which are made in Bremen to cool down the massive who were jumping and reaching out to Gentleman at any opportunity they had!
Alltogether, it was a real nice and chilled vibe down to the moments the artists took to pose for Help Jamaica and also a charity festival called "Feeling Fine" in aid of a charity for children in Addis Abeba, Ethiopia which Gentleman, Tamika alongside Silly Walks happened to have visited earlier this year. Last but not least big thanks to Kalin of Back To The Roots for everything!
