My top pick’s ‘a banger’
THIS MONTH’S pick is the undeniable banger, All In Good Time
As far as debut singles go, Tofunmi Adorna has already mastered what it means to capture hope in the form of a song, as the uplifting lyrics comfort listeners who may feel discouraged, anxious or frustrated with life’s circumstances.
The singer-songwriter, explains that this song came about at a time when she had been feeling disappointed and God encouraged her through these lyrics ,“to keep going”.
As a self-professed fan of Whitney Houston, Lauryn Hill, Doe and Maverick City, Tofunmi’s eclectic taste of music is another reason as to why she is an artist to be excited about.
If that wasn’t enough, she is set to drop her debut EP later this year, which is certain to be a smash hit filled with a miture of spoken word, soulful music and even a re ective ballad.
Listen to All in Good Time on any digital streaming platform and follow Tufunmi’s musical journey, ‘@Tufunmi.adorna’ on Instagram.
Given SheHH’s specific focus on Christian women, why do you feel that women need to be heard in the Christian space?
Paula: It’s no secret that female artists simply don’t get as much time in the limelight as they should, in comparison to their male counterparts. It’s even harder to find recognised female artists within the smaller Christian music genre.
The SheHH Podcast is a series of interviews with women in front and behind the scenes of Christian Music globally. Women have stories of God at work in their lives and I believe they should be heard too.
Speaking of Christian women in music, who would you say were your favourite artists growing up and who are some of your current favourites?
Paula: Growing up I was a big fan of Mary Mary — they were my favourites! I also listened to Tamela Mann,Sinach and Nicole C Mullen. Currently, I’m loving Asha Elia, Emandiong, CRYS and Adeshola!
Thinking about the future, what can we expect from the Podcast going forward?
Paula: We have big, BIG dreams! We are hoping to put on our own events where we can hostChristian artists on grand stages. We want to run a distributionlabel that helps emerging artists with the production and marketing of music — we want more women as career artists (living off their music and art full-time).
Wow! So many plans and such an exciting future ahead! Thank you for sharing the journey of the SheHH Podcast but before we sign off, how can people support the vision?
