Miriam keeps herself busy. Not only is she an acclaimed singer, she is an author, actress, and activist. So busy that she hasn't had time to record for 7 years. Homeland is her return to the studio and she as heartfelt as always. Even though she spent may years in exile from Africa she is still very patriotic to her native country of Africa. About half of the tracks here are in her native toungue; the rest being in english. She has had quite a carreer spanning four decades and still going strong. Homeland features a version of her top ten single 'Pata Pata'. She is in fine form her and doesn't show any signs of aging. Her voice soars like a mighty bird.
