In New Interview Yemi Alade Speaks About The Reaction Of Fans To Her Music

 In a chat with Leadership ng, Yemi Alade spoke about her fans and the sort of reaction she gets from them. Read excerpts from the interview below
.

I did my African tour last year and you can imagine the love and craze for Yemi Alade.  It got to a point that a lady fainted. Nigerian music is massive in other countries. It has become a global brand. While performing in Paris, I got five “Johnnys” on stage; men who love my music.  My brand, “Yemi Alade”, is growing fast and I thank God for it.
I’m elated that this is happening to me; I had hoped for this. I had my African tour in 2014 and my tour of Nigerian cities was in 2013.

Do your fans go into a frenzy during your shows?

Yes! It happened during my African tour. Two ladies were so engrossed at my peak performance, they suddenly passed out and it was such a frenzy. Security and medical officials had to quickly wade in and revive them. It was humbling.

 Your sexiness, swag and talent is drawing a lot of male fans, isn’t it?

(Laughs). I don’t know about that, but I try to give my best and my all. I love what I’m doing now and my management is pushing me to give my best. Yes, I’m sexy; I have heard that before, but mytalent speaks more for me. Yemi is a home girl and relates with all. I’m just like the girl next door.
