Lemar (born Lemar Obika, 4 April 1978 in Tottenham, London)

Lemar was born to Nigerian (Ibo) parents, and grew up listening to soul music and R&B and used to sing at home with his brother pretending to be The Jacksons. He was eighteen when he had his first concert at the Junior Jam at the Temple in Tottenham supporting Usher. He gave up an opportunity to study pharmacy at the Cardiff University to pursue a musical career. Lemar had some success supporting Destiny's Child and secured a recording contract. Following this, he released his debut single "Got Me Saying Ooh", which did not chart in the UK Singles Chart. When the record deal fell through due to restructuring at the record label he was signed to, he had to eventually take a job working as an accounts manager at NatWest Bank.

Beyonce Singing Naija anthem!!!

[9yja]

lovers rock is the first collection of new work by sade in eight years. but it's a record that says less about those years gone by than the promise and vitality of the here and now. it's an album that's by turns moving, elegiac and beautiful. like the tender, acoustic guitar-driven first single, by your side, a song about the tensile strength of love, it is music stripped back to its essential elements: voice, melody, and meticulously arranged instrumentation. the result is a record of bare, sometimes startling immediacy.

but then helen folasade adu is a woman who has never had anything to hide. born in ibadan, nigeria and raised in colchester, essex, where she moved at 4 after her english mother separated from her nigerian father, she's spent her life trying to do what feels right, honest and true. because by comparison nothing else has seemed as important. when she was growing up, sade would listen to soul artists like curtis mayfield, donny hathaway......
proudly nigerian.
