I suspended the series to honor Tony Allen. Now I am back, and to the award-winning Chidinma, a talented songwriter and singer, an alumnus of the University of Lagos. Outstanding in music videos, as a lead artist, singles, and studios, she has won over a dozen awards, including the 2012 Kora Award (Best Female West African Act). Her songs and performances reflect a diversity of sources ranging from Onyeka Onwenu, Lagbaja, Fela, to Bob Marley and Whitney.

 

Lovely Chidinma, today is for you.

          

 

 

Enjoy!

Enjoy your evening as I close with Chidinma and her great love songs—always singing of love and positive relationship with compassion.
