Details:
"Secret Weapon Volumes 1 & 2," is Marcel''s fifth and final release recording as MARCEL on his own label, Bombay Recording Company. Along with the release was a world tour promoting all of his material from 1998 to the present in select cities and countries.
Andre Marcel Wilson, now Andre Marcel Ajamu Akinyele, was born June 21, 1972, in the Bay Area of San Francisco, California. He began singing at the age of 5, and by the age of 11 had taught himself how to play several instruments. He is heavily influenced by Prince and MeShell N''degeocello.
January 15, 1998, as MARCEL, he released his first CD titled, "The Diary of Marcel" on his own recording label, Bombay Recording Company. He produced, arranged, composed, and performed all of the material. He toured the Bay Area and promoted the CD by doing in-store appearances in Tower Records, The Wherehouse, Sam Goody, and Rasputin.
May 15, 2001, he released his second offering,
"Spice : The Alternative Hip-Hop Experience." "Spice" was released in various record stores including Tower Records and Sam Goody''s. "Spice : The Alternative Hip-Hop Experience" has a more developed Hip-Hop, R&B sound with an added mixture of Funk, Rap, Old School, and Futuristic rhythms.
Since the release of "Spice : The Alternative Hip-Hop Experience," he has been on the front cover of Disc Makers Magazine and continues to be featured in the magazine on a regular basis, received internet distribution with The Orchard, and has been nominated for the "Just Plain Folks 2002 Internet Awards." Sales have been generated via Internet in Japan and Italy. The song "Spice" was added to a Japanese Cable Network Program in Japan.
November 15, 2003, he released his third offering, "Uptown : 2025 A.D." His mission is to find "Love & Trust" and to bring back those elements to a planet in search of utopia.
April 15, 2004, he released his fourth offering, "Uptown : 2025 E.P. The Remixes" that contains the HOT remixes of "You''re The Love of My Life," I''ve Got To Know...," and the outstanding remix of "Mother Earth." "I''ve Got To Know..." was in rotation on The Upper Room with Joe Kelley, an Internet radio station based in Connecticut. Prince also featured this radio station on his website, which was a high point for Marcel!
August 25, 2004, Secrect Weapon is released. Inspired by Prince and MeShell N''degeocello with a very funk influenced concept, Marcel feels that this is his funkiest CD ever! If you enjoyed Prince''s Dirty Mind, Sign O'' The Times, and LoveSexy time periods, then this CD is for you!
MARCEL now records as "Ajamu Akinyele" on the Pearl Jazz Recording Label.
