Yemi Alade makes history as first female African artiste to hit 1m subscribers on YouTube

Admin July 3, 2019

Music diva, Yemi Alade has made history as the first female African artist to hit one million subscribers on video streaming platform, YouTube.

This feat comes months after Alade became the second Nigerian artist to hit one million views on YouTube for the song, ‘Johnny’.

The ‘Oh My Gosh’ singer took to her Instagram page @yemialade to announce the feat and reflect on her musical journey of six years.

She wrote, “God is the GREATEST, started this journey six years ago. Thanks to everyone streaming / watching my videos and music. God bless us all.”

With this feat, Alade joins other entertainers who have over one million subscribers, including the defunct P-Square (1.2 million), Davido (1.5 million) and Diamond Platnumz (2.1 million).

Her debut studio album ‘King of Queens’ was released on October 2, 2014, by Effyzzie Music Group.

Alade collaborated with producers such as Selebobo, Sizzle Pro, Shady Bizniz, Philkeyz, Young D, GospelOnDeBeatz, DIL, OJB Jezreel, Mr Chidoo, Fliptyce, EL Mcee and Beat Nation.

The album was preceded by three singles: “Johnny”, “Tangerine” and “Kissing”. It features guest appearances and skits from Bovi, R2Bees, Phyno, Chidinma, DIL, Selebobo and Diamond Platnumz.

She has performed around the world and shared the stage and songs with the likes of Mary J. Blige, Shina Peters, Wizkid, Becca, M.I, Waje and others. (NAN)
