Yemi Alade says she lost her voice before recording with Beyoncé

Yemi Alade has shared a dramatic experience of losing her voice just before recording for Beyoncé’s album, “The Lion King: The Gift”

In an interview with Larry Madowo on ‘CNN African Voices’, Alade revealed how the incident unfolded after arriving in Los Angeles.

She said after arriving in Los Angeles, she visited the studio to meet the production team a day before her recording session, only to wake up the next morning unable to speak

“All I heard in my head was an effort, but I couldn’t voice out words,” she explained, describing her shock and discouragement.

Despite feeling discouraged, she said she decided to try her voice routine, which included a combination of warm water, Vitamin C, ginger, teas, and keeping warm.

The recovery enabled her to record two tracks with Beyoncé, including the “Don’t Jealous Me” hit and a verse for an earlier version of “My Power.”

Alade humorously attributed the initial vocal mishap to her “village people” trying to thwart her big break.

However, she expressed profound gratitude to God for overcoming the obstacle and making the collaboration a reality.
