Urban Contemporary Gospel Artist, TolumiDE, Receives Two Washington Area Music Association Nominations
Artist Arrives Back In The States After African Tour
(Washington,
D.C.) - January 24, 2011 - TolumiDE (pronounced toe-lu-MEE-day), one of
the most exciting gospel artists to hit the stage in years, has been
promoting her debut project, My Love. A
D.C.-based, urban contemporary artist who includes hip-hop, R&B and
African rhythms in her unique sound, she has been heard nationally on
dozens of gospel radio stations. Songs
like her CD's title tune, "My Love" and the laid-back "What I'd Like To
Be" have the gospel music industry talking about the Nigerian
songstress. She's been covered in the Afro American, The D.C. Examiner, Heed Magazine, EURWeb.com, GospelPundit.com, PrayzeHymnOnline.com, and TheBlackGospelBlog.com
and her video has received airplay on Gospel Music Channel, Christian
Broadcasting Network, ONE Gospel, MTV Base, Channel O, Nigezie, and MBOA
TV.
Now the singer has been recognized by the Washington Area Music Association (WAMA). An
organization created to highlight and educate musicians in the Nation's
Capital, annually WAMA announces stand-out artists in a variety of
categories. TolumiDE was nominated twice in the Gospel/Inspirational category. She
received a nod for Gospel/Inspirational Vocalist and another one for
Gospel/Inspirational Recording for her debut project, My Love. WAMA will be handing out awards on Sunday, February 20, 2011 at 8PM at The State Theatre (220 N. Washington Falls Church, VA - 703.237.0300). She's thrilled about the recognition. "I'm
so honored to receive recognition at the Wammies and I'm looking
forward to networking with other nominees at the award ceremony," says
TolumiDE.
The singer and songwriter has been quite busy lately and recently returned from an international tour in Africa. In
South Africa, she attended the Channel O music Video Awards Ceremony
and did a promotional radio tour in Ghana stopping by Hitz 103.7FM,
Y107.9FM, Sunny 88.7FM and the Allo Tigo Show with Jon Germain. In
Nigeria, in Lagos City, she dropped by many stations including
Inspiration 92.3FM, Beat 99.9FM, Classic 97.3FM, Top Radio 90.9FM,
