Archive material and source history

Asa was born Bukola Elemide in Paris in 1982, with Nigerian heritage shaping her musical background. She started writing songs as a teenager, pulling from personal experiences and the social issues she saw around her. Her self-titled debut album came out in 2007, featuring the single 'Jailer' that helped bring her wider attention.

Her songs like 'Fire on the mountain' and 'Preacher Man' often touch on social themes, with a sound that mixes traditional African rhythms with Western influences. She has released several albums including 'Beautiful Imperfection' in 2010, 'Bed of Stone' in 2014, and 'Lucid' in 2019. Tracks such as 'Moving On' and 'Eyé Adaba' show her soulful vocal style and introspective writing.

Asa performs as a solo artist but works with musicians like guitarist Afolabi Oyewole and drummer Leke Benson. Her music has found listeners in different countries, drawn to her voice and the thoughtful quality of her lyrics.
