Proverbe Bamiléké sur le paresseux / Bamileke Proverb on the Lazy One

Le paresseux est toujours sur la route de la chefferie pour aller quémander auprès du chef (et rapporter) (Proverbe Bamiléké – Cameroun)!

The lazy one is always on the road to the palace to go beg in front of the king (and tattle) (Bamileke proverb – Cameroon)!

Good proverb. I certainly can’t stand laziness in people. Speaking of Cameroon, I just released info about my upcoming full-length album. One of the tracks is actually called “Cameroonian Originality March” which I made with an Omnichord, keyboard, and hand percussion. I also have half French and half English lyrics as part of a bigger message.

    You’re welcome, Dr. Y. I’m going to release it in late December. I really have you to thank for the content of that song since you informed me about all these Cameroonian musicians who were ripped off.
