Jasmine is dedicated to Bakari Tashan (Fofana) Cross. Toyin's son who died before the song and video where completed. His wish was for his mother to continue to fly and she flies high on through Jasmine (Let it show). RIP Bakari.
The concept was brought together by Stevie Eagle E and produced by Stevie Eagle E for Shlepp Entertainment Ltd/Shlepp Records. Jasmine Flower is a traditional Chinese folk song Additional writing and melodies by Stevie Eagle E and Toyin Adekale. Jasmine was recorded in 4 different countries France, UK, China and USA and the video shot in 4 Different Countries. Jasmine pays homage to its Chinese roots sticking close to the melodies and lyrics from the traditional song but then it takes a different slant with the English lyrics and melodies written by Stevie Eagle E and Toyin Adekale to complement the vibe and message of the original but also to put their twist on it. Jasmine (let is show) Is Stevie Eagle E’s adaptation of Jasmine Flower.
The project has taken almost a year to complete and there are many stories within the story of Jasmine yet to be told. It has changed lives and continues to do so, such is the power of music and love. The single is set for release on the 10th of December 2018.
