Known for her impressive rise in the global music scene, Yemi Alade has released six successful albums and has transformed from a local talent to a global music sensation.

During an exclusive live interview with Kenyan journalist and CNN International Correspondent, Larry Madowo, celebrating the 15th anniversary of CNN’s African Voices segment, which is sponsored by Glo, Yemi reflected on her incredible path to success.

“My entire life is a miracle,” Yemi said with a smile. “God has been kind to me, and music chose me from a young age. I am the only indie artist among the Grammy nominees,” she added.

Discussing the challenges of her demanding travel schedule, the Nigerian singer, who refers to Angelique Kidjo as her music mother, revealed that she spends just three months in Nigeria and the remaining nine months traveling the world. This hectic pace has been her reality for the past six years.

Yemi, who hails from a Yoruba father and an Igbo mother, expressed how she embraces the rich cultural heritage from both sides. Being the firstborn, she is fluent in both languages and takes pride in her diverse roots.

“My parents decided to get married, and I’m their first child. I cherish my mixed background, and they gave me the best education. I even learned French during my secondary school years,” she shared.

Reflecting on her travels around Africa, Yemi expressed her appreciation for the continent’s diverse cultures. “Every country I visit has its unique cultural charm, and I love it. It’s easy to accept and embrace these different cultures,” she said.

Looking back, Yemi credits God for her success, recalling how, as a young girl, she won a music competition her friend had entered her in.

This pivotal moment set her on the path to becoming one of Africa’s most influential artists.

Yemi Alade’s musical style blends Afropop, highlife, dancehall, pop, and R&B, which has resonated across numerous African countries. Her song “Tomorrow,” which she performed at Eko Hotel, was the lead single from her sixth studio album Rebel Queen and earned her her first Grammy nomination for Best African Music Performance at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards.

The anniversary celebration of African Voices featured an array of distinguished personalities, including top CNN producers and executives from Glo, with Bella Disu among the notable figures present.
