Benz Petrole is a parolier (famous composer), entrepreneur, and friend & consultant for the big stars. Which is why almost all of them have been featured on his albums. His style is a mix of OK Jazz odemba, Viva la musica, & Victoria Eleison.
Arranged by Awilo Longomba, Caen Madoka, and Benz Petrole. This is what I call perfect natural sound. The Awilo I was a big fan of (not that world/crossover stuff he does). Great rhumbas and powerful sebenes
