Until early this year when she posed semi-nude for a New York based magazine, Adokiye Kyrian Yvonne a.k.a Adokiye is relatively unknown in the nation’s music scene. But immediately after that controversial posture, the sexy singer has become one of the hottest rising female singers in the country. Our reporter caught up with her recently in Lagos, where she speaks on the raunchy photo spread among other issues.

Music for me is something I’ve always wanted to do. I just wanted the right time to get into it and I believe this is the right time.

Early this year, you posed semi-nude in a New York based magazine. What was the attraction?
It actually got leaked. I did some modelling jobs while I was in New York and at that point in time, some pictures leaked while the process was still
