At the age of six Ayo. played the violin for a short  7kM4Ei  
time, then turned to the piano and later taught herself Xoi9d1fO  
to play the guitar. When she was about 15, she wrote her P'FKk<  
first song, which was about her mother, and which helped b6Xi  
her to cope with her traumatic childhood. Her musical '_E c_F  
taste was influenced by her father's large selection of J(hA^;8:  
vinyl albums which included Pink Floyd, Fela Kuti, Donny GWh|FEqUbf  
Hathaway, Jimmy Cliff and Bob Marley. When her father, #XL`S  
who worked part-time as a DJ while studying engineering 4g'}h`kh   
in Germany, discovered her singing talent he recorded a MBv/  
first demo tape with her in a studio and allowed her to V Qh/  
drop out of school at the age of eighteen. ,Z4^'1{D
