2023-07-29 12:00 On May 12, 2023, the popular Sudanese singer Shaden Gardood was killed after a mortar hit her house in Omdurman. Shaden Gardood met Omo Santana in Khartoum in November 2021, when he was in Sudan for the preparation of the second Karmakol Festival. The two liked each other and talked about working together. Shaden recorded one of their Sudanese songs acapella to a click track and Omo Santana was to contribute music for a demo. Then came the coup, the cancellation of the festival, and later the clash between two generals and the collaboration come to a stop. On September 9, Wild Youth Digital releases the demos with the voice of Shaden from the year 2021.    Shaden, we will miss you.
