Cameroonian Tunes

If you're curious about Cameroonian music, here are some of my favorite songs.  Also a lot of what we listen to is actually from Cote d'Ivoire or elsewhere.  Enjoy!

Personal favorites:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zjgHyJP76MA - Mon bebe - this song is my freaking favorite
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G_5pzLWjQjY - Ma Meillure - I think it's Rihanna every time
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiKj0Z_Xnjc - Papaoutai
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vIzeQ1Z6lK4 - This song is in Portuguese, I think, but it's really popular and really awesome.


Some other popular stuff:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rcc2dAkaOcY - Hein Pere - this shit is huge
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17vC8qZILJE - "Chop" is Pidgin for eat, and the phrase "chopping money" means, like, wasting/overspending money.
