#2016Review: Get to know Cameroonian Producer "I.V.O"
Hey Guys, Warzzoooppppppp ???
So, it is Christmas season and it is also the last days of the year 2016. I just thought of this amazing concept which i simply termed the #2016Review, whereby i will be talking with a few Entertainment stake holders around Cameroon. Each day i will feature atleast one of them and they'll share how the year 2016 was for them, what they liked and what their plans for 2017 are.
Today i wil be starting with someone called Trilby 'IVO' Mbou.
I.V.O is a young Cameroonian music producer and songwriter/singer who was discovered on Maahlox Le Vibeur's song "Ca Sort Comme Ca Sort" which was released in 2015 and ended up being one of the most popular songs of the year in Cameroonian territory and also other parts of the globe. He later on worked with Maahlox Le Vibeur again and produced a couple more hit singles like "Tuer Pour Tuer" featuring Phil-B and "Tu Montes Tu Descends". Watch the video for Maahlox Le Vibeur's "Tu Montes Tu Descends" below.
I asked I.V.O a few questions and here are his answers below;
Q1. What is your Favourite Genre of Music to produce?

Q6. List 3 Fun Facts we don't know about you
IVO:
- I've taken a weird decision to be wearing just shorts ( no trousers) just as personal style and it's not easy lol
- I spent part of my life in Yaounde and part in Buea so my French is not that good and neither is my English, so when communicating I always find myself switching between both languages to express myself better...
- The last fun fact about me is that i am funny (according to me) hahahaha...
Q7. What should we expect from you come 2017 ?
I.V.O: Alot of surprises
I.V.O also has amazing vocals and he expressed this on his cover of Justin Biber's hit song "Sorry". Though he hasn't released his own personal music yet, we hope 2017 will be the year we get blessed with his music.
