Profile & Background: Pencha
Bi (a.k.a. Penchabi) received a 3 album contract at Yellowgate
Studios where they already recorded and released their first single.
After the release they went on a country-wide tour. They were
also featured on the 'Kairo: Songs of The Gambia' compilation
which gives an overview of the music in The Gambia.
Their act features a fusion of R&B, rap-ragga and mbalax,
blended with some folklore.
The group is made up of Amie Cherie (an ex-comedian) and three
local rappers and a Senegalese vocalist. They first released promotional
singles called 'Bai Ma-Lamin Darra' and `Joyleh-lenn' - Tribute
to the late Ousu 'Lion' Njie.
The band came together after Pa Manjai Sey (FLX Man) started doing
music when he was at secondary school, and at the same time being
a DJ on a radio show called 'Pencha Reggae and Ragga' showcase
at Citizen FM in Kanifing. After a couple of years of the show
he decided to form a musical group with some of his associates
and came up with the name Pencha B.
