Y’akoto -  Album "Baby Blues" (2012)




Born in Hamburg Germany as daughter of a well known ghanaian musician and a german mother, Jennifer Yaa Akoto Kieck alias Y’akoto led a nomadic lifestyle beeing raised in Ghana, Carerun, Togo, and Tschad and lived in Hamburg, Lomé, and Paris. The 23- year-old artist believes that in order to truly find yourself someday you have to continuously loose yourself.

Her debut album “Babyblues” makes the listener loose his head with profound, sexy, and bright songs (a fusion between soul, pop and afrobeats) and a powerful voice which some describe as a mixture between Erykah Badu & Nina Simone. At least as good! Incomparable and incredible!

Everbody just LOVES mondays! Here is the perfect item for mondays at the office...

Designed to use the valuable time at the office at a maximum - or example for a a short but refreshing nap:

"OSTRICH offers a micro environment in which to take a warm and comfortable power nap at ease. It is neither a pillow nor a cushion, nor a bed, nor a garment, but a bit of each at the same time. Its soothing cave-like interior shelters and isolates our head and hands (mind, senses and body) for a few minutes, without needing to leave our desk."



Also good to hide from the collegues, the angry boss, screaming girlfriend or lousy conversations...
