At a time when most of the younger generation are still in search of their creative niche, ADIGÉ has solidified her calling through her gift of writing, rhyming, and performing, as well as other talents such as drawing, acting, and dancing.
ADIGÉ has performed with numerous Christian artists within the past few years such as Mike E, Debbie Winans, Mr. Del and Holy South, B.B. Jay, and most recently with Nicole C. Mullen. The most recent concerts/conferences she has performed at are; the Women of Faith Conference performing “Witness” by Nicole C. Mullen in Chicago, IL and Philadelphia, PA, as well as performing with Nicole at the first Franklin Graham Crusade in Gastonia, NC.
Like a solitary diamond, ADIGÉ, has been shining ever since her very first performance in August 2002. Already, she has recorded an independent, selftitled release in 2002. She has just completed her demo with producer Jack “Shoc” Shocklee (tobyMac, Lil iRocc Williams, Group 1 Crew) and now she’s in the process of getting her second album together.
However, unlike many of her creative peers, ADIGÉ is striving to use her lyrics to educate rather than merely entertain. Whether it’s the encouraging lyrics of Walk It Out or the real issues that teenagers face today in her new song entitled Restoration, she provides a genuineness that is hard to find in any genre of music today.

Why this name?
The acronym was given through prophecy in 2002 and then, the letters miraculously formed the spelling of my name as a recording artist. ADiGE is the acronym for A Diamond in God's Eyes which is pronounced (ah-dah-jeh).
Do you play live?
Yes I perform live. I go to various places but the majority are church functions. Every moment seems to be special to me.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
Yes it REALLY has because you don't have to wait that long to receive an mp3 versus a wave file!!! YES!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
It all depends...
