MBAH JULIUS M a.k.a JINXED is another remarkable Cameroonian artist. The name ”JINXED” comes from a dictionary word meaning ”bringing 2 much bad luck”. This is one of the best rappers around with a spell-binding and ear- smacking mixtape of 16 tracks titled ”RAP 101”. From the title ”RAP 101” ,you can tell it is a course to educate rappers. Mainly, the mixtape contains rap education to others who are messing up rap today. He raps in his track titled ”JINXED’‘:
“….2 MUCH INSANE ACCLAIM 4 FAME BY LAMES IN DA GAME/
A SHAME SAME PROCLAIM THEY FLOW BUT FLAME/
HOW COME I DON’T EVEN KNOW YOUR NAME/
NO HOT TRACK, RAPPERS LIKE U DON’T FIT IN DA FRAME”
He has a track in which he does not only rhyme words but rhymes words making lines with same letters. Check this little extract from his A-Z skit
A
AWFULLY,ASSASSINS ADORE AUTOMATIC ARTILLERY
ABSTINENCE AVOIDS ALL ACQUIRING AIDS ACCIDENTALLY
AGITATED ARABS ANNIHILATE AMERICANS
ARROGANT AMERICANS ASSAULT N ABUSE AFRICANS
B
BLACKS BATTLE BANKRUPTCY BRILLIANTLY
BONAFIDE BALLAS BALL BY BUILDINGS BRAVELY
BANDITS BRUTALIZING 4 BIG BUCKS
BRUTAL BLACK BROTHERS BLEEDING BIG BLOCKS
From his lines we do not doubt that ‘Jinxed’ is a lyricist and 5 star artist coming up. Unlike other rappers who are into using obscene languages, Jinxed all through his 16 track mixtape does not say a single obscene word. His flows are fabulous and his word play and rhymes are so original. You would think you are reading to a rhyme dictionary.
Music, he says is his life and he listens to music and pens down lyrics all the time.
He narrates that his love for music started from the baby ages and he has and would always be a number fan of Pop legend, Micheal Jackson. His inspiration comes from artists like Papoose, Nas, Jay z, Cassidy, Fabolous and many more. He is a a graduate from the University of Buea.
Right now,Jinxed he is working underground and penning the sickest rap bars. You can listen to his tracks on

Nexdim caught up with Itambi Delphine, a Cameroonian film producer,actress and script writer for an exclusive interview.Let’s discover!
NexDim:Can you introduce yourself to us?
Itambi D: ”Well I’m Itambi Delphine Akwi. a young film producer, writer and actress. I’m from the Northwest region , the 5th out of a lovely family of 6 born to Mr and Mrs Itambi Simon of Oshie”
NexDim: When did you develop passion in film production,acting and script writing?
Itambi D: ”That’s far back as in my childhood. I remember developing from a story writer, to attempting to write novels and subsequently writing movies in 2006. Then i performed my first short play titled ”public disgrace”, and few others”
NexDim: NexDim Empire learned you studied Chemistry in University of Buea with a bachelors degree. How do you merge that with your movie career”
Itambi D: ” I was expecting that. Well it wasn’t a problem while i was at the university as i am good at managing my time. Chemistry was there but my passion was movie. I think it instead helped to always keep me busy and focused”
NexDim: What are the projects you have initiated so far?
Itambi D: ”Well I’ve only produced a single movie titled ”A Woman’s World” which was shot ending 2008 and first premiered at Seme Beach hotel in March 7th 2009 and later premiered in Los Angeles in October 24 2009.Copies will be released end of this month in Cameroon”
NexDim: What are the difficulties you face in the movie industry in Cameroon?
Itambi D: ”the first problem is lack of sponsorship. I think Cameroonians have not understood the role of the film industry and what benefits the country can derive from this sector of arts. This makes it if not impossible but difficult to carry out film projects as much as i would or producers will love to. Also, the lack of professionalism among film makers makes it difficult to sometimes bring into life the original concept of stories to the audience. Therefore i strongly think film makers need to be exposed and attend as many workshops as possible to do real cinema in Cameroon”
NexDim: With the infiltration of Nigerian movies. What effect does it bring to your originality?
Itambi D: ”mmmm well i must say Nigerian films have almost no defects on my production and upcoming ones. This is because as much as Cameroonians are kind of addicted to these movies i think it’s because they have not yet been convinced enough by Cameroonian producers. When they see good stuff they will eventually fall in love with it. All i believe is that a good movie is a good movie and everyone loves good things. Secondly,i will say me as a person have my own philosophy about movie and what kind i want to produce. I produce a movie which i believe is good and educational without copying from anyones culture. To me,the more a movie appeals to no peculiar people the more its educative”
NexDim: What is your next project?
Itambi D: ”well,i cant really disclose for now as am still putting things together but hopefully i will be carrying out a next project by mid 2010”
NexDim: Who is your role model or the person you admire most in the film industry?
Itambi D: ”mmmm i love Jennifer Aniston, and Genevive Nnaji. Was forgetting Sharon Stone’s name” (laughing)
NexDim: Who would you like to collaborate with in future?
Itambi D: ”Stephen Spielberg. On set”
NexDim:How do you deal with piracy?
Itambi D: ”well have no movie in the market yet. So when i release soon, i will be able to answer that”
NexDim: Who are the people you think are dynamic in the Camer movie industry?
Itambi D: ”Mr Kamwa Anthony.He is a director, Agbor Gilbert, a producer, and Neba Lawrence, a director too.Actors like Zoneziwoh , Geraldine Ringnda, Melzet, editor like Achille Brice Eteki, and camera operators like Njukeng George and Mr Gobina Samson.Well it’s obvious i mentioned mostly about the people I’ve worked with”
NexDim: What’s your favourite song?
Itambi D: ” Keshia Cole, ‘’sent from heaven”
NexDim: What’s your favorite Cameroonian dish?

The Indomitable Lions of Cameroon put up a brilliant performance against the reigning world champions Italy in Monaco, France.They thrived in holding the 4th ranked team in the world to a zero all tie.The head coach Paul Le Guen was able to inject a new breed of skillful and youthful defenders like Nkoulou,Bassong,Assou Ekotto,Mbia,Nonkeu and the new comer Abouna Ndzana of Astre de Douala.
The attack was unable to bring forth a goal despite enormous efforts by Jorge Kouemaha and Samuel Eto’o.We are yet to see fluidity in the attack line.
Also visible,was the naive but skillful performance from Joel Matip who was making his first entry in Cameroonian colours.
Italy coach Marcello Lippi’s experimental line-up failed to deliver as the Azzurri were held to a goalless draw by Cameroon.
Lippi used the friendly in Monte Carlo to try out some of his fringe players and despite his team dominating the encounter, they were unable to find the finishing touch.Both sides will went into the match on the back of first-place finishes in their World Cup qualifying groups.
Azzurri tactician Lippi, who led Italy to victory in the 2006 World Cup, tested a 3-4-3 formation with AC Milan striker Marco Borriello returning to the squad for the first time in almost two years.
Borriello formed the Azzurri’s attacking line alongside debutant Andrea Cossu and Antonio Di Natale as Lippi used the game to evaluate several candidates to complete his World Cup squad.
Cagliari goalkeeper Federico Marchetti replaced injured Gianluigi Buffon in goal and was never tested by Paul Le Guen’s side.
The Italians had the first scoring opportunity early on when Di Natale latched onto Andrea Pirlo’s free-kick and his header went over the bar.
Italy thought they had taken the lead when Giorgio Chiellini fired past Cameroon goalkeeper Hamidou Souleymanou but the goal was ruled out for offside.
Cameroon had their first chance midway through the first half but Georges Mandjeck struck the ball poorly from a good position.
At the other end, debutant Cossu fed Di Natale and his left-footed diagonal strike went wide.
The Azzurri continued to press forward and their efforts were almost rewarded shortly after the half-hour mark.
Cossu served Di Natale and the Serie A top scorer’s strike from the edge of the area was met by a fine clearance from Hamidou.
Lippi made three substitutions after the restart, including Giampaolo Pazzini replacing Borriello.
Pazzini got to work immediately and passed to Di Natale inside the area.
His powerful strike was cleared by Hamidou.
Shortly before the hour mark, Di Natale wasted a good chance with his effort from substitute Claudio Marchisio’s assist going way off target.
At the other end, Mandjeck’s dangerous cross proved an easy catch for Marchetti.
In the 70th minute, debutant Leonardo Bonucci should have broken the deadlock.
Cameroon’s defence failed to clear a corner but Bonucci could not tap the ball in.
With 10 minutes remaining, Marchetti came off his line to anticipate Achille Webo as he was ready to score from a fast counter-attack.
With seconds remaining, substitute Gennaro Gattuso made a crucial tackle on Samuel Eto’o, with the Inter Milan forward ready to knock in the winner.
Italy did not win, but Lippi was not downhearted following his interview with ESPN.
