Asa incorporates elements of soul, pop, folk, and reggae, among other international influences, into her warm neo-soul songs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the time of her birth, her parents were studying cinematography in France. Asa is the only female child in the family, alongside three brothers. She was two years old when her family relocated to Nigeria, so she grew up in Festac Town, although the family is from Itoko Town, Abeokuta in Ogun State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Asa first attended the popular\u00a0<strong>Corona High School in Lagos<\/strong>. She later went to the Federal\u00a0<strong>Government College, Jos, Plateau State,<\/strong>\u00a0where she had her WAEC. At the completion of her secondary education, Asa returned to Lagos for her university education. Asa was temporarily a student of Theatre Arts and Music at the<strong>\u00a0Lagos State University (LASU)<\/strong>. She dropped out as a Diploma student, spending a little over six months as the curriculum clashed with her Saxophone lessons class at<strong>\u00a0Peter King\u2019s Musical School<\/strong>\u00a0in Badagry, Lagos, where she majored in Guitar for a year. At age 20, after completing her primary, secondary, and university education, she returned to France to study at the\u00a0<strong>IMEP\u00a0<\/strong>School of Jazz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her musical career started after she left Nigeria for France. In 2004, Asa met her manager and friend,\u00a0<strong>Janet Nwose,<\/strong>\u00a0who introduced her to\u00a0<strong>Cobhams Emmanuel Asuquo<\/strong>, who in turn became the producer of her first studio album,<strong>\u00a0Asa (Asha)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>source: naijabiography<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>#EduSAVINGS#EduLOANS#EduSURE#INTERNSHIP#SCHOLARSHIP#EduHEALTHMAINTAINANCE#ENTERPRENUERSHIP#PressPayNg#TERTIARY#EDUCATION#TUITION#FEES#UNIVERSITY#POLYTECHNIC#MONOTECHNIC#FELLOWSHIP#COLLEGEOFEDUCATION#HOLIDAYJOBS#SOFTSKILLSTRAINING<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bukola Elemide, professionally known as\u00a0A\u1e63a, born on the 17th of September 1982 in Sign Virgo, Paris.\u00a0She is a Nigerian-French singer,<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":5080,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"colormag_page_container_layout":"default_layout","colormag_page_sidebar_layout":"default_layout","footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5079","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
