Songs like ‘Manifest’ and ‘The Divine Exchange,’ previously released, echo her desire for a deeper spiritual connection.

In this ten-track project, Olaedo delves into topics close to her heart, including mental health, healing, forgiveness, self-love, and self-worth.

Her single ‘Golden Skin’ fearlessly addresses taboo subjects like colorism and the risks of skin bleaching, featuring gospel artist Rae Rae.

This empowering track has garnered attention from BBC Radio London, Premier Gospel, Heartsong Radio, Sheffield Live!, Susy Radio, Radio Africana, Naija Fm, and more, amassing over 3000 streams and becoming a fan favorite through its music video.

Moreover, ‘Golden Skin’ is part of an initiative supporting the British Skin Foundation to raise funds for skin research.

Reflecting on her latest work, Olaedo shares,

“Despite life’s challenges, I believe in overcoming them and achieving victory. I hope ‘Golden Skin’ uplifts and encourages every listener. I firmly believe that regardless of your circumstances, there’s a path to triumph.”

Raised in London to Nigerian parents, Olaedo, which means ‘gold’ in Nigerian Igbo language, discovered her passion for singing at an early age, performing in church, weddings, and stage plays.

Her songwriting prowess developed through reading psalms, Motown influences, and personal experiences.

During her formative years in Nigeria, she immersed herself in diverse musical genres, drawing inspiration from artists like Cece Winans, Stevie Wonder, Janet Jackson, Blanca, and Mary Mary.
