Salatiel features in Beyoncé’s New ‘Lion King’ Album

“The soundtrack is a love letter to Africa,” says Beyoncé.

Beyoncé has revealed the track list for her Lion King-inspired album, The Lion King: The Gift.

The 14-song album will include several original Beyoncé tracks, as well as collaborations with the likes of JAY-Z, Kendrick Lamar, Childish Gambino, and Pharrell.

The Lion King: The Gift notably includes many of Africa’s best acts including Cameroon’s Salatiel. Salatiel is one of Cameroon’s most talented afro pop artists and music producers, also founder and CEO of Cameroon’s biggest independent record label, Alpha Better Records which currently houses 2 other artists, Mr. Leo and Blaise B.

Also included in the album are other African artists like, Tekno, Yemi Alade, Mr Eazi, Burna Boy, Wizkid, Moonchild Sanelly, Busiswa, Shatta Wale, and Tiwa Savage, often in collaboration with the other artists on the album.

We’ve already heard “Spirit” and can now look forward to tracks like “Don’t Jealous Me” (a collaboration between Tekno, Yemi Alade & Mr. Eazi), “Brown Skin Girl” (Wizkid with Blue Ivy Carter, Beyoncé, and Saint Jhn), “Already” (Beyoncé and Shatta Wale), “My Power” (Busiswa, Yemi Alade, Moonchild Sanelly, and Tierra Whack with Beyoncé), “Water” (Salatiel, Pharrell and Beyonce) and many more.

“The soundtrack is a love letter to Africa,” Beyoncé says to ABC. “I wanted to make sure we found the best talent from Africa. Not just use some of the sounds and do my interpretation of it. I wanted it to be authentic about what is beautiful about the music in Africa.”
