Tatale Their album dropped in 2004 and with a strong promotional push from Sir George Productions, it has been a breakthrough success for Tatale whose songs like ?Kaalakame? with Bak Tye (the hit track), ?Wo Nkoaa? with Nkasei is blazing Ghanaian radio stations nationwide and gradually climbing the Adom Top 40 chart show.
The young men that shape the group Tatale are General Bugy and Pizo who have together composed a healthy hiplife sound similar to the soulful poise of VIP, Buk Bak, Nkasei, 4x4 and other hiplife groups.
General Bugy who is based in Accra and a native of the Volta Region started embracing music at a tender age and grew up writing music and singing in hopes of scoring a better career deal in professional singing notwithstanding the discouragements from his friends.
For Pizo, he has been imagining such stardom for a long time. Born and raised in Accra, he began singing as soon as he heard the vocal beauty of stars like Buk Bak. He was in his teen years, but Buk Bak?s self-titled debut was enough to motivate the little boy.
The two young talented and sensational dudes met each other at a musical show and thought of joining forces together since they saw the best in each other.
General Bugy and Pizo weren?t exactly overnight sensations. They had a number of false starts on their road to success. They landed with some singles that went nowhere. Finally, things started to go their way toward the end of their teen years when they met Mr. George who was really impressed by their lyrical flow and dynamism on stage.
Tatale's debut album ?You Alone?, which has songs like ?Kaalakame? (the hit track), ?Wo Nkoaa?, ?Adukwe? and ?Sumo Haa? has received a lot of airplay and is set to dominate the local charts.
After a long wait, Tatale?s new album includes guest appearances from hiplife lords like Nkasei, Bak Tye, Fredor, Papa Nacie and TR with sound engineers such as Hammer, Jay Q, and Kobby Eshun at the helm.
Aside their aim that is making it big in the industry, they also want to use their music as a medium to encourage everyone that you can make it in life no matter what. They also have all the types of genres of Ghanaian music on their 8 track-album including a Nigerian flavoured song.
The two-member group has plans of doing video clips to push the album more. The energetic and determined rappers who attended Emit have performed on shows like the late Terry Bonchaka?s Resurrection Chapter 1, Music Music in Kumasi, Top Radio?s Street Carnival and are currently planning to stage a show in Italy.
Tatale?s overnight jump to superstardom follows that of Buk Bak, similar urban music sensations helmed by Agiecoat. They are set to make waves in the hiplife community with their ?You Alone? album and catapult into the year as one of the best-selling male musical groups in history.
After their sterling performances at most memorable shows, they have really earned countless fans across the regions of Ghana. Tatale plans to stay in the hiplife scene as long as it goes on and have dreams of reaching the international market.
Ever wonder what Tatale means? It is simply plantain. As usual, beans without fried plantain is not very delicious. Thus, the music industry cannot be nice and interesting without Tatale. They can be reached by phone on 233 27 7477 303 or contact their producer on 233 24 4251 376.
