Comorian musician Dadiposlim recently hosted an exclusive preview of his new EP, "Tamu", at Yas in Zilimadjuu. The event, attended by prominent figures in the Comorian music scene, took place on the rooftop of Yas' new building, offering a stunning view of the southern part of Moroni. Guests included Salim Ali Amir, Cheikh mc, Maalesh, Malha, Zax boy, and Nas blk, among others. The EP features 9 tracks, including two collaborations with Medox Bilwox and Kporal Chris.
During the event, Dadiposlim expressed his gratitude to the attendees and those who contributed to the project. He presented himself in a stylish Streetwear outfit, consisting of a beige two-piece ensemble with a short-sleeved shirt and a pant with a vegetable pattern. The artist then let his music speak for itself, stating, "ce soir il n’y a pas de discours. Nous sommes là pour écouter Tamu. Je vous souhaite une agréable soirée. Merci à toutes et tous d’avoir répondu présent". He also thanked his wife, citing her as his daily inspiration.
The EP's tracks showcased Dadiposlim's sentimental style, a hallmark of his musical identity. The second track, Edje, got the crowd moving, while the fifth track, featuring Medox Bilwox, significantly elevated the ambiance. One guest praised the composition, saying, "Solam a fait du Solam. La composition est magnifique jusqu’ici". The event allowed attendees to experience Dadiposlim's new musical direction firsthand.
According to Dadiposlim, the "Tamu" project initially started as an album with over 20 tracks produced with his beatmaker, Elamine Saïd Ali, also known as Solam. They decided to split the project into two EPs to maximize their productions. The first volume of "Tamu" was set to be released on November 13, with the second volume planned for after Ramadan.
The reactions from attendees were largely positive. Maalesh appreciated the first two tracks, feeling that Dadiposlim had reached a new level in his musical evolution. Gaston praised the progression of the project, noting that the tone "montait au fil des morceaux". These reactions suggest that "Tamu" has been well-received by the Comorian music community.
Dadiposlim has been associated with Yas for over four years, serving as an ambassador for the company. He also thanked Solam, his beatmaker, and Hicham, who contributed significantly to the project. With "Tamu", Dadiposlim adds a new chapter to his musical career, building on his previous albums, including "Twamaya" (2015), "Holo" (2019), and "Mbelizi" (2023).
The term "Tamu" in Comorian means "flavor" or "saveur". This new EP showcases Dadiposlim's growth as an artist and his ability to experiment with new sounds while maintaining his unique musical style. As the Comorian music scene continues to evolve, "Tamu" is a significant addition to Dadiposlim's discography and a testament to his artistic creativity.
