                                           DULO ARTIST

STANISLAUS ADU TAKUM who goes by the name DULO is an uprising artist(rapper) from the Menka origin Widikum in the Northwest Region of Cameroon, though his mother is from Bali Nyonga. He is twenty-two years old and is the last of 4 children to their parents (3 boys and a girl).

Coming from a religious background, Dulo is a Catholic and very strong in his faith. He attended all his primary school at C.S Batibo and attended his secondary and high school at G.H.S Batibo. During his secondary and high school days, Dulo was so much passionate about Literature in English that he longed to be a Literature teacher. Having this dream with him after high school, he started studying modern letters as a private student at ENS Bambili. But he later dived into studying Insurance at Polytechnic Bambui that same year in 2014. In 2016, he obtained his HND in Insurance.

The love of poetry and expressions pulled Dulo into the music world where he been for these past years. He has to his credit 4 official tracks namely; HAND FOR MOB; ELE SO; IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW; and AND SO. He has also done a number of collaborations with other artists some of which include; RED OIL ft Jeff J and Tclin; TIME NO DE ft Jeff J, Chantal Travota and Tclin; and EASY ft Jeff J and Branza.

Dulo also draws his inspiration when he listens to artists like JOVI, STANLEY ENOW, FALZ, SARKODIE, MANIFEST, J COLE, KENDRICK LAMAR and a few more.

“They give u what you want to hear and come when you least expect” he describes his role models

Like every other person, Dulo faces a number of hindrances to his vision. One of which is the lack of support from those who have already made a name in terms of putting their logo or signature tune on a song they produced, and also giving feedback on songs sent to them, thus Dulo pleads with the “big brothers” of the art to give a helping hand to those who are still uprising.

“With the fans, the showbiz in Cameroon has just 2 more years to grow because they have begun consuming our own products. It is now left to the musicians themselves to improve on their music quality and help each other grow” Dulo quotes.

Dulo encourages all of you upcoming artist to be prayerful, believe in yourself and your art, and love yourself. He goes on to put you on guard that God before all and never to let praises get to your head as it kills good talent.

“If you don’t believe and love what you are doing, how do you expect people to love your arts?” a food of thought by Dulo

Asides rap, our admirable artist also has some knowledge in manicure and pedicure for ladies as he studied it. But as of now, he is a  kind-hearted person who volunteers at the Delly Singah Foundation, an NGO meant to give the homeless hope.

                                    N-JUSTIN BROWN ACTOR/PRODUCER

From the Grass-field region (Northwest-Cameroon), precisely from Kom in the Boyo division, is a multi-talented show biz star by name NCHINI Justin well known as N Justin Brown. Justin is the fourth out of six progenies from strong and kicking parents. He started his education in the Southwest region of Cameroon up to the level of high school where he moved to the Bamenda in the Northwest region of Cameroon where he obtained his A-level. He then continued in the University of Bamenda, in the school of ENSET, where he is currently studying Business marketing.

          It was in 2015 that Justin decided to follow his calling, his passion, to get into show biz as an actor. While there, he discovered other hidden talents as a producer and a scriptwriter. The road wasn’t covered with milk and honey, as he faced difficulties in training, having a perfect schedule that cuts through school, acting and other personal hustles, and also the issue of lack of finances. All the above-mentioned hurdles didn’t weigh Justin down. He found a way to supersede all these downturns. 

         

          Justin has worked on the projects “Nightmares”, “Bed of Thorns” and “Flames of hell” (to be released). He revealed that the public should be anticipating 2 more projects coming this year. The movie “Bed of Thorn” was a massive hit as it received the public price award at the YARHA International Film Festival, and a number of nominations at the Red Feather Award where it won “Best original screenplay” and “Best film”. It has gotten over 7 acceptances into film festivals in and out of Cameroon.

“As challenging as the movie industry in Cameroon is, it is growing and making Africans proud. But we as Cameroonians need to accept and support the industry by consuming their products and stop comparing. We also need the Government’s intervention to get to the brim” Justin gives his own opinion about the Cameroon Movie Industry.

Most recent the multi-award winning movie BED OF THORNS was accepted into the prestigious AFRICAN FILM FESTIVAL in Dallas USA indeed "There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure" thumps up BED OF THORNS

I think a role model is a mentor - someone you see on a daily basis, and you learn from them that is Desmond Whyte, Libota McDonald, Idris Elba, Will Smith and Tyler Perry.

N Justin Brown is a warmth hearted individual kind to all he meets loves making fun, watching movies and listening to good music.

 You can catch him on Facebook at @Justin Brown Official and on Instagram with the same name.
