Editor's note

Yemi Alade's Afropop anthems and UN advocacy

A Nigerian singer who blends catchy rhythms with messages of empowerment, from 'King of Queens' to 'Queendom'.

If you want to get her vibe, start with 'Na Gode' for the pure Afropop rush, then check out 'Nobody' to hear where she's coming from lyrically.

She's one of those artists who makes Afropop feel both like a party and a statement. Songs like 'Na Gode' and 'Bum Bum' have that undeniable, danceable energy, but she's just as likely to drop something like 'Nobody', which carries a sharper, more empowering tone. It's that mix, plus her work as a UN Women Goodwill Ambassador, that gives her music its weight.

Winning the Peak Talent Show in 2009 got her signed, and her debut album 'King of Queens' arrived in 2014. Since then, she's kept putting out records like 'Mama Africa' and 'Woman of Steel', collaborating with everyone from Angelique Kidjo to Rick Ross on the 'Oh My Gosh' remix.
