Description
When Ify Adenuga became a parent, she made one clear decision - she wasn’t going to raise her children the way she was raised.
Growing up during the Biafran War in Nigeria meant discipline and survival came first. But in her own home in London, she wanted something different.
So she chose conversation over control. No hitting. No fear. Just talking, questioning, and listening.
That environment helped shape two future artists: Skepta and JME.
