On January 16th 1959, Helen Folsade Adu was born in Ibadan, Nigeria. Years later, she was to become a sensational musician, with a very distinctive voice and personal charm. This is the story of Sade:

Adebisi Adu, and Ann Hayes, also known as Sade's parents, had an unfortunate marriage and by the time Sade turned 4, they broke up. Ann moved back to London, where Sade grew up listening to Nina Simone, Aretha Franklin, Ray Charles, Al Green and Billie Holiday. She got accepted at St. Martin School of Art and studied fashion design, but that did not stop young Sade to have various jobs since high-school.

She had been a men's clothing fashion designer between 1979 and 1983, then started her career in music as a back-up singer for Pride in 1982. A year later, Sade and Pride's saxophonist, Stuart Mathewman, started the band "Sade" and things have started to turn for the better. Critics liked her name just as much as they loved to refer to her voice as a smooth, sophisticated, sound with a slightly jazzy act. Sade became a standard for all singers who tried and utterly failed to get close to her style. By the end of 1984, the band included Andrew Hale (keyboardist), Paul Denman (bassist) and Paul Cooke (drummer).

"Diamond Life" was Sade's debut album, released on the international market in early 1985. It contained the single "Smooth Operator" and was sold in six million copies by the end of the same year, setting a new selling record for British female singers. This is also one of the reasons why Sade was awarded the Grammy for Best New Artist.

"Promise", Sade's second album came with another historical single - "Sweetest Taboo". Exhausted from the eight months world tour, fed up with the public's mean rumors, Sade decided to step off from the spotlights for a while. Her come-back album "Stronger Than Pride" - released in 1988 - was, once again, a massive success, but Sade disappeared from the music world again after a concert tour that included Australia, Japan and jaw-breaking performances in the United Stated. Her decision to move to Spain and marry a documentary filmmaker has brought her on the edge of depression for a whole year.

It was 1992 when Sade released her next album, "Love Deluxe", and earned another Grammy with the featured single "No Ordinary Love". Another break for Sade career in 1995, but this time as a parent. After the launch of the "Best. of Sade "" Interactive. Sade "back on stage with his latest album" Soldier of Love "and the world can not help but Sade!
