Yemi Alade Instagram – As we gear up to mark OkayAfrica’s 15th anniversary, we’re kicking off the celebrations with our first digital cover star for the year, Yemi Alade.
Throughout her 15 years in the music industry, the Nigerian musician has always stayed true to own vision – even when the naysayers and critics thought they knew what was best for her. To show for it, she has legions of fans, a rock-solid reputation as one of Africa’s biggest stars, and now, a Grammy nomination all her own.
