Qing Madi
Afrobeats singer/songwriter/dancer Qing Madi has gained viral attention at home and abroad with singles like 2022’s “See Finish” and 2023’s “Why,” which are both featured on her 2023 self-titled EP.
Born Chimamanda Pearl Chukwuma in Nigeria, Qing Madi was encouraged to sing by her mother, a former singer/dancer herself. While participating in school talent shows and her church choir, and winning local awards as a ballet dancer, Madi self-released several EPs as a teenager. Her big break finally came in 2022, when she signed to the local label Jton Music, which soon inked a distribution deal with Columbia Records. Debut single “See Finish,” released that same year, conjured a late-‘90s/early-2000s R&B style with modern Afrobeats rhythms, and became a viral hit on TikTok. Its upbeat follow-up “Why” continued Madi's success at home. “See Finish,” “Why,” and a third viral single, “Ole” -- a streaming chart-topper throughout Africa -- were all featured on Madi's self-titled debut EP, released in late 2023.
