Global Afropop superstar, Yemi Alade has released a new single “Tomorrow”. The up-beat track speaks on the importance of the gift of tomorrow and its promise of a better day. It’s about having another opportunity to achieve things we couldn't today.
It encourages one to place their trust in the divine guidance from God despite the uncertainty of the future. This new uplifting, Yasso-produced single laced with vibrant energy and positivity, is the first single off Yemi’s upcoming tenth body of work set for release in 2024.
Ahead of the release Yemi says, “Tomorrow is a timeless piece that honors the aspirations of the future and the ongoing pursuit of turning them into achievements. This is a dedication to all those envisioning brighter days, serving as an anthem for champions.”
Yemi Alade is excited to once again offer a tantalizing body of work. She revealed that the new album will be a cocktail of different genres with multiple flavours designed to appeal to every single music lover from any corner in the world.
She says, “I created this album with the sole purpose of creating music I grew up loving and the variety I have grown to love now. I was inspired by the core African music of Highlife and different genres that got us excited as Africans.”
Yemi Alade started the year 2024 on a big note - performing at the 2024 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) opening ceremony. Her upcoming album will add to her stellar discography and her global domination.
