The Carrot Friday Nite Live presents Melaku Bireda

My name is artist Melaku Bireda. I was born and raised in Ethiopia and my childhood was notcomfortable and I spent 4 years on the streets. However, by not giving up, I was able to gradually get out of the terrible life I was in by using the favourable opportunities I got from studying, working and the musical talent in me. In my musical life I released three albums and in addition to this I also released Twists Beguragea Full Album 1999.

Apart from reflecting the culture and values of the community that raised me with the musical talent given to me, I served by resisting the political, economic and psychological pressure of the previous government on my community and making music that focuses on that. At that time, I was subjected to serious threats and intimidation, imprisonment, harassment and abuse by the government. Hence, living in the country was very dangerous for my safety, so after living in exile in different countries since.

From 2010 TO 2019 South Africa,Sudden, U.A.E., I am currently living a stable life in Canada. I am grateful for the support given by the country and government of Canada and respect the human and democratic rights of every citizen and to promote that culture and tradition.
