time, then turned to the piano and later taught herself 92]>"  
to play the guitar. When she was about 15, she wrote her =4\|'V15  
first song, which was about her mother, and which helped R5 X<8(4p  
her to cope with her traumatic childhood. Her musical IJD'0/R'c  
taste was influenced by her father's large selection of !R//"{k0?  
vinyl albums which included Pink Floyd, Fela Kuti, Donny KG'4;Z5J  
Hathaway, Jimmy Cliff and Bob Marley. When her father, >9esZ

in Germany, discovered her singing talent he recorded a JZD27[b
