GoodGirl LA career

GoodGirl LA was already actively participating in music at a very tender age. She contested in several music competitions, including the renowned Nigerian Idol competition. We can’t tell if she came out glorious, but who cares now.

Her passion for music led her to enroll at the MUSON School of Music in Lagos, where she happily bagged a degree in the Theory of Music. A move she is forever grateful to.

In 2015, she released her first single. “Faraway” followed it up in 2018 and then another single in 2019, “Bless me”. Two hit songs that got her fans on their feet as they groove to it.

She entered the spotlight with the release of an 8-track album “La Confidential”. The album spoke well of her creativity and she was marked as an “artist to look out for in 2019” by various reviewing platforms.

The album was rated 6 out of 10 by PULSE NG and it’s a reflection of her journey through life and her personal experience.

When she was asked by PulseNG whether she feels she’s on course in her career, she replied, “God doesn’t make mistakes.”

Her success is self-merited and owes no one any dues as she is the owner of the record label, GoodGirl LA Entertainment.

She was nominated in the 2019 Headies Award under the Best Vocal Performance category but she lost to Teni. She sees the loss as a great achievement and looks to win bigger laurels regardless.

She looks up to other iconic names in the music industry, such as Rihanna, Tiwa Savage, Wizkid, Asa, and Beyonce. And she learned most of her stage performances by watching  Britney Spears, Michael Jackson, and Beyoncé.

She longs for a duet with either Asa, Wizkid, 2Baba, or Tiwa Savage.
