At the age of six Ayo. played the violin for a short M$9h)3(B  
time, then turned to the piano and later taught herself  `SrVMb(  
to play the guitar. When she was about 15, she wrote her H;ib3
?  
first song, which was about her mother, and which helped :f:C*mYvu  
her to cope with her traumatic childhood. Her musical hI0l2OE  
taste was influenced by her father's large selection of K6oLSr+EAK  
vinyl albums which included Pink Floyd, Fela Kuti, Donny 39#>C~BOl  
Hathaway, Jimmy Cliff and Bob Marley. When her father, _L>n!"E/  
who worked part-time as a DJ while studying engineering *uR'eXW  
in Germany, discovered her singing talent he recorded a cB^lSmu5  
first demo tape with her in a studio and allowed her to L zC~>Uj  
drop out of school at the age of eighteen. O*7 pg
