Adora ready to drop new album
The singer wishes to inspire and demonstrate her growth over the past three years.
Adora Kisting comes from the southern parts of Namibia. “This has always been on the further end of the list in terms of development and empowerment,” she says. Kisting dedicates this album to those who find themselves at their lows, often.
This album has been in the making for almost a year. Rise has the work of producers like Preezy, Glo and Arrafath. There was not much thought put into the collaborations done, Adora explains. “Our wish was to go with the flow and work with the right people for the right songs.”
Some of the collaborations on the album are with Artist of the Year, Kalux, talented Jayden from the Obie and Jayden duo from OTT, Jaliza and Mulberry as the only women, and others.
When asked by tjil why she chose that specific title Adora mentioned that Rise is a very symbolic but also a very sentimental title. “I chose this one specifically because it was suggested by my father, moreover, this is a humble plea to the Namibian nation to rise above all circumstances,” she exlaims.
The body of work consists of 14 tracks of diverse sounds, genres and styles. Rise was inspired by the success of her debut album As I Am which carried her for almost three years.
Adora mentions that not only was it time to put out a new album, but it was also time to share who she has become after the launch of the first album. The album was also inspired by her beautiful fans and those who supported her throughout her career.
The videos they have released alongside Palladin Pictures have shown great success. Their great expertise and astonishing quality can only inspire her to keep the focus on the quality. Phoenix Media Group, which is run by Adora's management company, has ventured into setting up a mobile studio and of course, a sound production department. The second-year student at the College of the Arts looks forward to completing her year with flying colours and to also inspire others that they too can achieve something.
The queen of the south teased collaboration with a young upcoming hip-hop artist from Swaziland called Street Cooper. “We have done a song together and that has given me great mileage in a country I have never been to. I wish to return the favour by introducing him to the Namibian audience through different platforms,” she says.
Adora is also an ambassador of the Omake Charity Initiative which has the ambitious plans to assist unemployed youth, pensioners and school-going children in Namibia who need food, school uniforms, blankets and sanitary pads, and anything that could improve the livelihood of the youth and elders.
“We want to help by providing a long-term solution to the people who are affected due to lack of education, unemployment and other socio-economic factors,” she further noted. Through this initiative she has learned that as artists they have a greater responsibility. “It's not just about the great music and the popular face, but also about the influence,” she says.
Adora would like to thank the very special contributions made towards completing this album and making it a reality, in particular Jackey //Kheibeb, Usiel Haoseb, Palladin Pictures and the Geingob household for believing in her talent and sacrificing so much to make the brand grow and grow to new heights.
