She stated that being born and raised in Holland won't stop her from chasing her dreams of breaking into the music scenes of Ghana and Nigeria, where she aims to make a positive impact.

Fadu, also known as Faduad Hammond, faced the challenge of incorporating local languages and Pidgin English into her songs.

Nevertheless, Fadu persisted, and she has seen some success with the songs she has released so far, both in Twi and Pidgin English.

In a conversation with Graphic Showbiz, the 22-year-old Afrobeat singer discussed her latest amapiano single, "Follow Me," released in September last year. The track, nearly three minutes long, starts with soothing instrumentation and gradually builds up to a vibrant rhythm that could get everyone onto the dance floor. It was produced by Linkin Beatz.

Currently studying at The Hague University of Applied Sciences in the Netherlands, Fadu has been making headlines with recent singles like "Yah Luv," a reggae tune, as well as "Go Away," "Feelings," and "Number 1," all available on digital platforms.

Managed by movie producer/director Ato Yanney Jr. of Gatlink Music, Fadu is optimistic about her future in the music industry and is exploring potential collaborations with renowned artists from Ghana and Nigeria to enhance her brand and relevance in her home countries.
