YUM YUM Top Tunes November

Top Tunes are coming a bit late this month – we had our 7th anniversary this month and we kept busy doing these 8 bday mixtapes for you as well as the new YUM YUM Mixtape “The Dude”. Plus we had some issues with our servers (were under attack) and took us some time to figure that out, but its all good now, you just need to empty your browsers cache or wait for it to be gone in a few. So, hope you dont mind us being late. but here you go with this months Top Tunes Selection. Enjoy

Something from Y’akoto

The only thing i know about Y’akoto is that i’ve watched her Tamba video after the release and totally underestimated her.

Today i’ve found her EP on iTunes and bought a copy instantly. Enjoy this little musical collection i’ve made for you and make sure to support her.

During november she’s on tour with ‘Joy Denalane’ from germany and french-nigerian based singer and songwriter ‘Asa’. Check the tourdates over here

Listen to some tracks out of her first EP called Tamba which was released in August 2011:
