The 2014 London African Music Festival will again run for 10 days, take place in 16 venues in London and more than 100 among the best Artists and Musicians like the Soul Diva DEBRA DEBS (Cameroon)

Talented Cameroon-born, London-based soul singer/song-writer Debra Debs returns with a fresh new album entitled 'LifeCycles' released late November 2013 and rapidly garnering rave reviews within the UK soul and jazz circuit. For music lovers with a penchant for sounds blessed with groove and soul, this is one album that is guaranteed to stay on rotate.

Recently No 1 on the UK SoulCharts and Jazz FM's January week 3 'Album of the Week', 'LifeCycles' blend of "NeosoulfulJazzyRnBAfrosoulThings" and as much of a mouthful that is, the LP is an intricate blend of sounds infused with 90's RnB, Jazz, Gospel, AfroSoul and skilled lyricism that tend to impart socio conscious messages or resonate poetic enchantments for those with a weakness at describing seduction and life's multi experiences.

There is no mistaking she's been influenced by the likes of Jill Scott, Ella Fitzgerald, Lauryn Hill, Sarah Vaughn, Mary J Blige and many other greats. Currently promoting 'LifeCycles, Debra Debs is impressively one of the UK's finest emerging artists and certainly one to watch in 2014.

She's recently made it to No 1 and No 3 spots of the Sweet Rhythms charts on Solar Radio and the UK Soul Chart. Other achievements include performing at London's prestigious Royal Opera House; winning the Best Female Urban Act Cameroon Academy Awards, making the Urban Music Awards 'Ones to Watch list 2013', performing at the UKs biggest Africa Fashion show [Africa Fashion Week London in 2013], the National Reality TV Awards and British Young Business Awards to Vince Cable and the Mayor of Camden.
