Yeahh ASA, hmmm, the first track i heard from her was eiye adaba almost a year ago on radio(rythm 93.7) very early one morning aroud 5.30am and i listened to this babe, and i got goose pimples all over my body followed by anuther all over bodybeautiful feeling ,man! that babe can siiiiinnnnnng!i heard fire on the mountain on radio too,GREAT!however i saw the album in traffic around maryland, but the print of the cd sleeve made me a little bit skeptical about buying it, dont worry guys the album will soon be on the streets, i have personally waited for this album for over a year now so i'm still waiting.

I think the best someone can do here is give us a link to her site. I need to have a glimpse of this character as i'm considering a future with her.

Help!!!! who is ASA

Asa is the Lady that stole my heart with her songs. we are all in chains and gloriously so.
oh i love her songs sooooooo much.

here is a link someone put up:

[size=25pt]And where can we get the album?[/size]It's not in stock at any of the biggest media stores

in Naija and it's definitely not yet on the streets, so where did y'all get your copies?

I got the CD at the junction of Sanusi Fafunwa with Akin Adesola on V.I.  I have a fair belief that it is an original.

Her websites are: asamusic.net, myspace.com/asaofficial, naive.fr/sites/asa.

I like all the songs.  My favourite is Awe followed closely by Iba.  My least favourite for now is Subway. 

I listen to Awe and the characters suddenly come alive like an oil painting, like a theatrical performance in slow motion each character's face becoming clearer each time I listen to the song.  Not only is the CD the best I purchased this year but the best I've purchased ever.

In a moment she morphs into Macy Gray then she's Desiree (No one knows tomorrow) then she's Dido (Subway) then she's Angelique (Iba).  In a moment, she's singing Soul then it's Reggae then it's folk.  From the cultural perspective, she seems to be the next level after Fela, Lagbaja and Beautiful Nubia.

chychy:

Have not heard Asa's album only d song "fire on the mountain" n i thot it was

cool but TY Bello? Hell no!!!!!!!!!

Apart from greenland and funmise, what else is good about that album. Besides, there is no harvest when the land is green,

I agree with you, T Y Bello is nowhere comparable to this gem of a lady - maybe Fela, maybe Lagbaja. 
Aṣa, mo kira fun mama rẹ!

You seem to hve know so much about her, please don't take her away from me or else

Thanks for the information, i'm listening online already!

.

The best, Another genius is being unearthed! Her voice is so real u can "feel" it and then it lingers on in your mind rtefreshingly.

ASA's cool. Reminds me of corinne bailey rae

i'm listening to the album right about now.i bought it for 70bucks at alaba.its cool anyway

the album is tooooooooooo mad. al d tracks

got my copy in traffic on the island, i'll be on d lookout 4 ny original version cos its a classic album. i rily love her

The Album is off the chizzle,
I listened to the "fire on the mountain" track
and could not stop drooling.

Asa is a talent.

men this girl is killin me, her voice, her words, i gotta say everytime i hear any of her songs im blown away by her depth. still lookin for her album, pls peeps hola @ me wen its out abeg.

Asa is undoubtedly a world class talent, but she is by no means alone. Apparently there is a whole slew of these talented youg women out there repping Naija to the max. There's Nneka who you can watch here
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXMTtOS-oKg as well as Ayo who you can watch here

There's still a couple of them out there who i've only heard of but haven't really heard their music. As soon as i do, i'll let y'all know.

And Ty Bello doesn't even come close to any of these ladies. These are musicians, not singers aided by studios and software.

Asa is the bomb, i love "fire on the mountain", which is the only song ive listened to on her album, but from the great reviews ive read here, ive got to get the album fast.

Someone mentioned lara george, i think she's talented too, i heard her version of the song "ijoba orun" and i was too impressed, her voice is awesome.

ahemm yes asa is phenomenal, but abeeegi no funny comaprison with fela, lagbaja, even femi, plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz, when you want to compare, you can compare her with ty bello, lara george, maybe even funmi davies,((their mama) but comparing asa with these guys, plzzzzzzzzzzzzzz they are parallel lines and the guys above are true masters and they have proven their mettle with albums, sold out concerts both within and outside nigeria, lets go softly with the comparison.

yesssssss! ASa is gooooD!1 Shes got such a lovely and unique voice and she sure knows how to sing. The first time i heard fire on the mountain, i didnt even know it was a nogerian song

Nigerians dont really appreciate her songs enuf.She is of international standard.Shes unique and Its her kind that win grammies.

That her fire on the mountain video too is da bomb! Good quality video

Talented is an understatement for Asa. She is here to stay. People should buy her cd looking for free downloads off the internet.

she's cool

asa nd ayo are ahead d game for me. i'll try to listen 2 some f d other ladies mentioned if nairalanders say they are also good.

for those who havent got the album, u can get it in most of the traffic situations which im sure u happen to be every now n then(lagos people). try not downloadin at least this time

i think that lady is smthg else. one of the few deep singers we have arounr here. check out her counternance when she,s singing, she sings sincerely and spiritually, closing her eyes and making u want to believe what she,s singing. her lines are RICH & thought provoking, I wish she,ll open a school of "asaism" so other singers can appeal better to our individual musical souls. Her songs really appeal 2 me,quenches my thirst musically , Truly I`AM A CRUDE FAN. my thumbs are high up for Asa

she sings sincerely and spiritually, closing her eyes

I can also do that!.

ASA ASA ASA .go on U are SIMPLY THE BEST!!!!

that chick is really talented bet you cant get tired of listening to the album.
from jailer to iba.
the tracks are fantastic.

if you dont have it you are really missing

Can someone pls upload the album tracks for us all,u can try sharemobile.ro

I agree with u guys
She is the boooomb
Cac u imaging standing on the road to listen to one of her songs
Awo,God bhelp me

My favourite Tracks:No one knows,jailer,Eye Adaba,Bi ban ke.i listen to them 24hrs non-stop.

simply beautiful

Classic

Seun:

I can also do that!.

You made me laugh

I got my copy of Asa's album last week and right now a lot of people (co workers n neighbours included) wuld love to have the CD burned (but they still love it non the less). Its been a while since a Nigerian CD totally blew me to bits.

Her Lyrics are quite reflective, soul wrenching atimes. I must say shes makes proud, what we have left of our nation. Her album gives us solace for the windy n tough everyday life , hope for a better future, and comedy like no other.

My favourites are Bibanke, Eye, Awe, jailer, fire on the mountain, so beautiful, Iba, and subway (about the whole album shey )

I implore you to get your copy of her awesome 'must win awards' CD. Merely owning a copy makes you feel quite proud of it. Even if you don't understand some of the yourba lyrics you sure would love the music (plus she's got interpretations on http://www.asamusic.net)

She truly is a great one somewhere btwn Lauryn Hill, macy gray, n Jill Scoot.

Right now, My fantasy is to have her perform a song with Jill scott, it sure would bee a killer! kai!!

Asa is an all time favorite and the lyrics to "Fire on the mountain" are more than hot. Party addicts won't appreciate her anyway, just people who love QUALITY music.

Go girl.

TY Bello and Ayo are good too, but lyrically, don't test Asa.

Christino you're very right,party addicts wont like her music,asa's music is for those who love quality music and not club banging songs.
