If you ask Kenn Wanaku about his relationship with music, he’d tell you that, "music becomes a part of your waking up and your going to sleep…I feel that music is a very spiritual thing…it is very important." A strong believer that music is the predecessor of all things, Wanaku’s thoughts are just as innovative as his name (he added an extra "n" to Ken to distinguish himself from so many others). From English speaking Cameroon, Wanaku has exercised pan-Africanism as he has also lived and worked in Nigeria from 1978-83.
