Luc Belaire has just released an exclusive interview with Afropop Queen Yemi Alade, with the Nigerian singer, songwriter and actress discussing her rise to mega-stardom with Luc Belaire CEO Brett Berish.
Like so many of her contemporaries, Yemi worked her way to the top and now enjoys cult status worldwide, but in Africa she`s a bona-fide superstar. After winning a talent show in her native country in 2010, Yemi launched a music career, smashing records with her hit single “Johnny,” now the most viewed video from any African artist ever! With multiple awards to her name and a third studio album recently released, she shows no signs of slowing down.
Yemi`s ascending trajectory is marked by the 11th installment of Belaire’s Self Made Tastes Better video series, which captures and shares the stories of self-made artists and influencers, both established and up-and-coming. Yemi joins Grammy-nominated rapper Rapsody and American rapper and TV star Trina as the first women featured in the wine brand`s inspiring campaign. The release of Yemi’s Self Made episode coincides with the publication of Forbes Africa’s 30 under 30 list, which names Yemi among the continent’s most promising young change-makers.
