Fresh music: Tatiana Okupnik and Wyclef Jean – ‘Valentine’

Posted by: Michał In: cultural beast

Tatiana Okupnik

Another relatively big international name records a single with a Polish artist.

This time it’s Wyclef Jean who’s teamed up with a Polish singer Tatiana Okupnik to record a song called ‘Valentine’, released on 14th February (obviously).

Tatiana used to be in a Polish group called Blue Cafe but went solo around 2005. She has a very distinctive croaky voice, although ‘Valentine’ doesn’t really allow her to showcase her full vocal capabilities.

I’m slowly getting used to the song, it’s not bad. Have a listen to it on her website or click the video below (audio only – unless it’s already been removed from YouTube):
