Afrikanboy aka YOUNG SUNNY ADE was born the 28th March 1989,
Real name Olushola Ajose, Afrikan Boy is a 19 year old Psychology and Sociology undergraduate student at Brunel University. Having grown up in South East London, Shola as he likes to be called was raised in a house of two brothers and two sisters with him being the oldest.
His naturally funny, pleasantly loud presence and free will spirit has won him fans from all types of social backgrounds. Shola talks of how “…he gives people no reason to be angry at him...” a trait which will definitely assist with his progression as an artist and entertainer.
He first discovered his entertainment skills in year 6 but admits to have formally taken up this once hidden talent seriously around the age of 16. Major influences include Nigerian superstar Sir Shina Peters and Fela while his British up bringing has drawn him to also look up to fellow peers Kano and Dizzee Rascal.
Currently he is busy preparing for several releases and tours with all the pressures of university one can only wonder how he has managed to stay on top of his game, surely his work ethos should be admired.
A famous face around the university circuit, to date AB has performed in front of crowds reaching their Thousands. Opening for PRINCE during his back to back shows at the o2 means he definitely has what it takes.
Shola talks of how he has not categorised his music in to any one genre but rather concentrates on elevating his fellow African people whether it be through singing, rapping or MC’ing.
His Collaboration is M.I.A on her album KALA was a worldwide hit! The album also featured Timberland!.
Since then Afrikan Boy has been a several Tours with M.I.A and himself.
Other than music and entertainment AB has ambitions to be a councillor one day, hence he has opted for the further education route.
According to him EDUACTION 1st, MUSIC 2nd, and Exam before a show! But I bet a million pound deal would change these priorities.
Nonetheless the remaining half of 2008 will see a nation wide promotional campaign, several music videos (‘Lidl’ being the first video to be released) an album in stores and an EP out just before the summer.
