The Afrobeats ripples continue to make wave around the world and the number of female spreading the gospel keeps increasing.

Flying the Afrobeats flag in the United Kingdom is Princess Oreoluwakitan Adenuga, better known by her stage name ‘Princess Ade’. She is set to release her sophomore single ‘Local’ produced by Grammy nominated producer ATG before the end of the first quarter of 2023. This is coming after the release of her debut single ‘Moving On’ in May 2022.

A 27-year-old singer and songwriter born in London, United Kingdom, since age five, Princess Ade started learning to play the piano and from there, her love for music grew into a deep passion.

By Age 11, Princess Ade started classical singing and was a member of the orchestra and many choirs in school. She frequently sang alongside her choir and also got her time to shine by singing solos in school and church up until the age of 18.

After spending her childhood and teenage years in the midlands, she moved back to London to begin her journey to stardom. During her university days, she was a member of the gospel choir who won the ACS Gospel Choir of the year award in 2014, and from there she knew she wanted to pursue music as her career.

Princess Ade began recording music in 2016 and since then she has been working assiduously to perfect her craft, master her sound and continue on her vocal training journey. She fuses old school R&B and Afro-piano bringing a unique sound to the industry.

She performed alongside Afrobeats superstar, Zlatan, singing back·vocals at his 2021 sold-out 02 Indigo concert, her biggest show to date.

Zlatan, the beautiful multi-talented singer, songwriter and entertainer, is working on songs for her first ever Extended Playlist (EP) as an independent artiste.
