Austria-based Gambian singer, Deejay Limbo was recently in the country to meet family and friends – and also to promote his music. 

“I had lots of radio interviews. I also had a show with DJ Pisces at Wow and got a chance to meet my fans,” he told What’s On-Gambia. 

Limbo, who left The Gambia for Europe in 2007, started singing around late 2010 with some friends including his current producer, Sheriff Akatah. 

He said: “I was just doing it for fun and was not expecting it to go far. I was once offered a record deal by G-Notes Records (G-Unit sub label), but it didn't materialized because of some legalissues.” 

The Latrikunda German- born singer has already rubbed shoulders with big reggae stars like Etana, Romain Virgo, Tarrus Riley, Gyptian, Aidonia and Konshens. 

He went to The Gambia with a mission: to share his music and also to establish a fan base. During his short stay, Deejay Limbo worked with some of the best promoters in the music business.  

“The Gambian music industry is rapidly growing, and many foreign-based Gambian artists are going home to promote their music and doing collaborations with home-based musicians. Our aim is to take Gambian music to the international scene,” said the summertime hit maker. 

Deejay Limbo is now in studio working on his new mixtape that he plans to release in both Europe and The Gambia. 

“I want to drop a mixtape this year, by the grace of God!”
