Happy birthday! Yemi Alade turns 37 today

Yemi Alade is celebrating her 37th birthday today. As a number of online tributes attest, she is one of the most acclaimed singers of her generation.

Popular singer-songwriter Yemi Alade (Mama Africa, ...) has always liked to keep a bit of herself hidden from view. At 37th birthday, she remains a woman of many facets.

Alade, a cultural icon

Born Yemi Eberechi Alade in Abia State on March 13, 1989, her career spans an arc over many different eras and tastes in Nigerian history. Alade's not just a great singer, she's an inspiration, an icon and a successful business woman. At this point in her career, there seems to be little Yemi hasn't done.

And we've got a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even bigger and better for Yemi Alade as she promises more to come. After all, she's only 37.

Happy Birthday, Yemi, you're the best!
