Daddy Black

Mbanyam Tah aka “ Daddy Black” was born in Edea - Cameroon in 1985 and his family later moved to Ngyen-mbo where he was raised. An unending passion for music and an apparent scour for rhythms probed him to gain genial experience in juvenile choral societies, traditional dance milieus and other related media at a very tender age. From the scribbling of ideas into exclusive lyrics, to the peculiar performances of his compositions, as early as 14, Daddy Black earned an invitation to the September 2002 Bamenda Trade Fair where he was not only exposed to the gleam of limelight but held the audience on the tip of their toes. The result was fascinating. A fresh deal with a club called Las Vegas was brought up to him which he quite appreciated and reached terms.
This seemed to have opened new doors for him but he preferred to relent no efforts as it occurred to him that a move to the capital city could have his music fibres woven into a mesh of success.
