After her live recording Christmas song with Elvis E called Keresimesi in 2021, afro-urban singer and songwriter, Uniekgrace drops a Christmas cover song titled Mary Did You Know with a jazzy flare.
Prior to the lockdown, Uniekgrace had just finished her second year of Music Academy in Belgium, in the direction of Jazz, and had been looking forward to recording something special in the Jazz genre.
Here is her very first, coated with lots of Christmas spirit.
A wife, mother of four lovely children, and a registered nurse, Uniekgrace’s core values are family, culture and faith. Being a typical third cultured child, She spent her developing years in Italy, Switzerland, USA, Nigeria, and Belgium, where she encountered many different cultures. These rich backgrounds enabled her to benefit from a large palette of influences while defining her own sound. Uniekgrace who was awarded by Top Naija Music as the artiste to watch on the Nigerian music scene few years ago has since been recognized by other award platforms in Nigeria, Belgium, United Kingdom’s Tru-Life awards and the African Gospel Music Media Awards to name a few. Her last release, SO GOOD produced by Elvis Ediagbonya enjoyed a spectacular global airplay, peaked at #15 on the American BDS chart and was the #1 Afrobeat song for the month of July 2022 on the UK Christian Charts. Uniekgrace also toured United Kingdom, Belgium and Nigeria on the back of her success of this single and was invited as one of the top artistes to headline the 2022 Afro Hair and Beauty Live festival dedicated to the 40th Celebration of Queen Elizabeth II’s Platinum Jubilee with over 10,000 attendees.
