Yemi Alade is an immensely talented artist who has continued to make waves in the music industry with her various performances – from setting the record as the first African female to hit 100 million views on YouTube with her “Johnny” track to performing for the British Royal Family and even pulling off her acting skills with Omo Ghetto: The Saga.
Yemi does it all, speaking multiple languages and singing in English, Igbo, Pidgin, Yoruba, French, Swahili and Portuguese which she applies effectively by showcasing African languages and attires in her songs. Back in 2015, she was even nominated for the MTV Europe Music Awards (EMAs). It makes perfect sense that Yemi is one of Spotify’s EQUAL Africa spotlight stars of 2023 – her accomplishments are unbeatable!
