Adeline Tchouakak, head of Culture desk at the daily Le Messager, unveiled another string to her bow: singing. The artist rendered a show on Sunday, November 23, 2014 in a recreational green space in Douala. A first solo scene followed by a session of criticism for her to improve, both by her fellow media, and music professionals and even laymen.

At the end of her delivery of six songs, the audience noted a very pretty voice but which Adeline still has to master. She acknowledges: "I have discovered a new way of singing, different from that of the choirs. Indeed, for one who has a long journey as a Chorister, it is possible to create a vocal identity”.


Her mates at choral singing acknowledge that they did not recognize the reserved girl. They discovered a singer, a quality that Miss Tchouakak still has to improve as audience kept urging her on, saying, "Let out what ever there is within you".

On the side of musical arrangements, the artist explained the monotony of some rhythms: "we have been practicing since August. But in early October, guitarist, Arabo who I pay tribute to died. In the same period, the drummer was awarded a contract in Chad. Within a very short time, it was necessary to replace them.


She has therefore been urged to keep her suggestive melody, continue to work, exercise, improve musical style that she has defined by a formula. In her own words she said, "I have the feet in my culture and the head in the world".
