Shaé Universe is a Nigerian-born British singer-songwriter who moved to the UK at the age of 4. Having grown up surrounded by the sounds of soul and gospel music, Shaé now cites the likes of Erykah Badu, Jazmine Sullivan and Brandy as key influences that helped shape her musical journey. The American Theatre graduate has since made waves in the UK music scene, with notable collaborations including Etta Bond, Kojo Funds, Ms Banks and Kojey Radical. She’s also had online recognition from the likes of Chance The Rapper, Stormzy and Tory Lanez.

What inspired you to begin a career in music?

I started singing in the church choir from a very young age and that initially sparked my love for music and melodies.

What differs you and your sound from other upcoming artists in the music industry?

Well, I’m me [Laughs].

Your latest release ‘Levels’ is out now. Can you please describe the creative process and explain the meaning behind the single and video?

The creative process for ‘Levels’ was super easy because the emotions were fresh at the time. I’d learned of some catty behaviour amongst industry individuals and it pissed me off. So I channelled that energy & ended up writing ‘Levels’. Sometimes the best way to address haters is just to level up.
