Despite spending most of her life in the United States, singer Libianca remains deeply connected to her Cameroonian roots. The Afrosoul sensation gained global recognition with her hit song "People" in 2022, where she embraced her Cameroonian accent, departing from her usual American cadence.
Libianca proudly identifies with her hometown of Bamenda, as evident from her Facebook bio proclaiming, "IT'S LIBIANCA FROM BAMENDA." This acknowledgment pays homage to her family's roots and her formative years spent in the city.

While many of Libianca's fans in Cameroon celebrate seeing their country represented on the world stage, not everyone shares the same sentiment. Recently, the singer faced backlash for performing with a Cameroonian flag, receiving over 50 death threats from rebels advocating for the independence of English-speaking regions like Bamenda.
Despite the pressures and threats, Libianca continues to navigate the complexities of her identity and the ongoing conflict in Cameroon.
