Shocking Revelation! I Performed Free Shows For 7 Years –Yemi Alade

The songstress you recently granted an interview to leadershinpg said she did free shows for a good 7 years. wow! That's passion for you... 

How did the music start for you?

I started singing when I was young. Dad used to play King Sunny Ade’s music; mum was a fan of gospel tunes. My brothers used to play a lot of  Usher and R Kelly songs, but I never wanted to do music. It was my mum who exposed me to it and made me take to it. I never planned to do music. I’m grateful to her now. You know that I won the Peak Talent Show in 2009 and I took off from there.

It was not an easy road to get to where I am now. I give God the glory.  I still plan to read music someday and add to my knowledge. Now, I’m passionate about music. My management, headed by Taiwo Alli, has been working hard to push my music and my brand and it is yielding results now. We are doing better music now and shooting better videos. But the beginning was rough as expected. I did seven years of free shows going from one club to the other and selling myself.
