The word retire doesn’t exist in the multi-awarded and popular singer Carike Keuzenkamp’s vocabulary.<\/p>\n
After 44 successful years in the entertainment industry, Carike is still as busy as a bee – she not only entertains adults with her contemporary music, but young audiences also gain hours of pleasure from her successful and popular Kinderland-albums.<\/p>\n
A brand new “Carike en Ghoempie kuier saam met Ghoeghoe in Kinderland” album (nr 8 in the series) is released this month by Sony Music – and a DVD (also nr 8 in the series) will be available in September at DVD- and music stores.<\/p>\n
The latest “Carike en Ghoempie kuier saam met Ghoeghoe in Kinderland” album has the same winning recipe as the previous albums and boasts with new adventures for the kids.<\/p>\n
A bonus on the new album is Carike’s song “Hondsalon” – a duet with Bobby van Jaarsveld. Other songs on the album include “Ghoempie en Ghoeghoe Dans”, ‘telefoon” and “Liewe Heksie.” Each song on the new DVD is a separate music video and Carike, Ghoempie and Ghoeghoe chats with the young listeners between the songs.<\/p>\n
Another exciting new project in the Kinderland-series is a book (by Christian Media Publishing) which will be published later this year. The book will be released with a CD – kids can follow the words of the songs while listening to the album.<\/p>\n
Sony Music will also celebrate Carike’s 45th year in the industry next year with a new “Carike en Vriende” DVD, which will be produced by Linda Korsten and Paul Kr\u00fcger, who also created the popular Afrikaans movie “Liefling”.<\/p>\n
The previous Tukkies Rag Queen made her debut in 1967 in the movie “Die Professor En Die Prikkelpop” where she sang her big hit ‘timothy”.<\/p>\n
Besides her contemporary albums, Carike has been very active for the last ten years in the children’s market with her Kinderland-projects.<\/p>\n
‘the Kinderland-albums actually were created ten years ago when my first grandchild Neil was born,” she says. “I really enjoyed presenting the children’s TV-program Kraaines years ago, but never dreamt that I will still be busy with children’s CD’s and projects at this stage of my life.<\/p>\n
“I am very thankful that I can make a contribution in the children’s market and that I can leave a heritage.”<\/p>\n
Carike’s “Carike en Ghoempie Kuier Saam met Ghoeghoe in Kinderland nr. 7” was awarded with a Huisgenoot Tempo award recently in the category Best Children’s Album. Besides various awards in the past, Carike was also honoured last year with a SAMA for her lifelong contribution to the local music industry.<\/p>\n
