Let Me Officially Introduce You To Adaku

Adaku …. get to know her

I am part of a non profit organization – The Seun Akinsanya Project, and last year, we officially launched our organization here in Maryland.  While we were planning  the launch, we looked everywhere for someone to entertain us, and that was when I discovered Adaku on Facebook. It was a video of her singing a song she wrote. When I found out she was based here in Maryland, I was thrilled! So I contacted her and pitched myself, and voila, Adaku was singing at our event. And she was beyond amazing!!! People  kept asking where  we got her from, and I, of course, was proud to say that I discovered her.

P.S. That’s her real hair. And it’s looooonnnnnnggggggg.

P.P.S. I want that hair.

P.P.P.S. And the necklace.

Continue to read more about this astonishing soul singer. And of course,  listen to and download Adaku’s first single, Or You Can.

In her own words, Adaku describes “Or You Can” as a song about being there for a friend, a lover or a loved one who needs a shoulder to lean on and most importantly a “big ass fro” to lay on. Initially posted on Youtube as a bedroom recording and a deviation from the usual YouTube cover videos, “Or You Can” took on a life of its own with over 15,000 YouTube views and troves of positive feedback that Adaku decided to create a studio version of “Or You Can” and release it as a single. Superbly written and produced by Adaku, it is a beautiful acoustic song with great lyrics and soothing guitar play that leaves the listener captivated and enthralled.
