Eritrea Soulful voice Diva all over North East AfricaPictures;- http://www.flickr.com/photos/50271104@N08/5411133096/\\\\www.eritreacompass.com\\Helen Meles' biography is the story one of the biggest African stars of the early 21st century. She established herself as a talented singer, bona fide diva during her two decade long musical career. She has become one of the biggest selling Eritrean artists of all time, and has captured the hearts and minds of Eritreans and neighboring African countries alike.One can feel the throbbing of her soulful voice, which sends strong vibes all over. Her beauty is mesmerising and it can be described by her proud and majestic posture and her profile can be sketched by her captivating facial expressions while doing her dance routines.
Strangely, if one is not familiar with her history, she does not exhibit any indication of the harsh life she led in the battlefields of Eritrea in her looks. Indeed, she was a combatant
with a strong touch of music in her. Although somewhat camouflaged, perhaps carefully depicted, she seems to elegantly include her past experiences in her some of her songs.Helen's expertise lies in popular music, which encompasses a wide range of styles of both local and international origins. She takes Tigrinya music to a different level by mixing traditional and modern music, which is influenced by European, Arabic and African music.
It would be interesting to see how Helen Meles's confident demeanor, her untamed passion, her eloquent language of the heart, and most of all, her powerful voice can yet again transform Eritrean music into another level in the coming decade.Helen Meles has surpassed being Eritrea's top diva and is only matched by very few as Africa's greatest female singer. Just came back from North East Africa Tour, Entebbe, Kampalla, Juba, Phil Bam, SPLM Head Quarter in Southern Sudan.
