Bahamian Singer’s Song For Obama Gains Popularity As Inauguration Nears
Nassau, The Bahamas… If Bahama for Obama fever was an actual disease, Adrianna Munnings might just be the first Bahamian to be listed in critical condition. The budding songstress who is working on her debut album has released her second single and first potential international hit Let Freedom Reign.
The song, which is dedicated to President-elect Barack Obama, has been holding strong on several major radio stations and is gaining popularity on the web as his Presidential Inauguration nears.
“I’m so blessed to be a part of this cyber-generation,” says Munnings. “In the old days, I would never be able to get this song out so quickly but thanks to the power of the internet and people’s interest in anything Obama, I have been receiving quite a few comments. As for my video, it’s the first time I’ve ever done one so I hope to extend that realm as I continue to pursue my musical endeavors.”
Munnings added that she just did the song as her show of support for the first African-American President of the United States of America during the election in fall 2008.
“Originally, it was something that I just sang in the bathroom, but when you have people eavesdropping and encouraging you, you can’t sit on your talent,” she noted. “It’s very simple and sort of like a soundtrack to what we are living today by watching the historic moves none of us thought would be possible in our lifetimes. I don’t think of the song as spectacular but it’s just my small tribute to perhaps one of the greatest men in modern history.”
