About Sade

Early life

Helen Folasade Adu was born on 16 January 1959 in the Colonial Nigerian city of Ibadan. Her middle name, Folasade, means "crowned with wealth" in Yoruba. Her parents are Adebisi Adu, a Nigerian lecturer in economics of Yoruba background from Ikere-Ekiti, and Anne Hayes, an English district nurse. Adu and Hayes met in London, married in 1955, and later moved to Nigeria.

Right now

The film's director, Steve McQueen, stated that Sade agreed to write the song for the film, because "the original series of Widows had deeply resonated with her." For a couple of weeks in 2022, the band visited Miraval Studios in France for the first time since recording some of their albums Promise and Stronger Than Pride. The successor to Soldier of Love is rumoured to be in progress.
