W.O.A Entertainment UK signs Basa Princess to Artist Management Roster
W.O.A International – The Music Company signs Basa Princess to Artist Management Roster
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
"Saydah is a special talent and not only is she a fantastic singer, songwriter and performer but she is also an established model and actress" says Oliver Sean, MTV Europe Music Awards 2012 Nominee & Founder of The W.O.A Entertainment Group, "I have had the pleasure of speaking to Saydah on my WOAFM99 Radio Show and we also featured her music video on the Syndicated WOA TV Show – All Things Music, the response we received for Saydah's music has been phenomenal to say the least".
Born in Liberia West Africa and now living in Los Angeles California, Saydah is originally a Basa Princess. Considered a child prodigy by some at the age of 7, she professionally began doing performances at age 16 when she was scouted by Ian Burke (TLC) of Green House Management (Atlanta, GA). She has since then worked with some of the music industry's biggest names including Kevin Black and Michael Holden who was part of Stevie Wonder's team and also producer for Coolio's 'Gangsta's Paradise' (A&R Records and Warner Bros), Preston Glass (Whitney Houston's song writer) and various others.
"Being a Basa Princess from the Basa tribe has allowed me to perceive the world in a unique light" says Saydah, "that light is what I strive to bring with me every time I sing and write".
Saydah's song 'Bound2Break' has recently been included in the global compilation Independent No.1's Vol.3 (W.O.A Records) and the artist is scheduled to perform Live in India on the 7th Annual W.O.A International Music Festival and W.O.A Records India Tour 2014. Saydah's acoustic album 'MeLee Madness' will be available on major Mobile networks across India and Dubai and the album is expected to hit A Class record stores in India next month.
Stay tuned to the Official W.O.A Entertainment website www.woaentertainment.co.uk and the Official Saydah Website http://www.saydahzufilms.com for the latest media/radio/TV updates and tour schedule across India and Dubai for Saydah

Independent No.1's Vol.3 Released Worldwide
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Conceptualized and Produced by MTV Europe Music Awards Nominee Oliver Sean, this is the third edition of this one of a kind compilation album, the first of which was released in 2009 followed by the Independent No.1's Vol.2 in November of 2013. WIth the launch of the third volume today the Independent No.1's is now to be an annual release similar to the world renowned Goa Chillout Zoone Compilation album released by W.O.A International 6 years in a row. The Independent No.1's will be supported with the same high end marketing and support that the hit compilation Goa Chillout Zone receives.
Featuring an unprecedented 47 International multi genre artists on this double CD compilation, the Independent No.1's album has received rave reviews by the media and the music industry for the years of hard work and dedication that the WOA International team has gone through to put together this highly entertaining and engaging compilation album and now wth the album to be an annual feature fans are going to have access to amazing talentcurated by the W.O.A Entertainment Group.
"The Independent No.1's is a project we began in 2008 with the first album releasing in 2009 during the 2nd annual WOA Records India Tour" says W.O.A International Founder and CEO, Oliver Sean, "the compilation initially only focused on the artist that were signed to WOA Records, however since 2013 we are now featuring Independent artists from around the world not necessarily signed to our label, this in turn has brought into focus wonderfully talented artists that would otherwise not be known in regions like India and Dubai".
One of the main factors that has defined the W.O.A Entertainment Group's business model has also been the fact that the company is founded by one of Independent music's biggest breakthrough Musician, Oliver Sean. The company being run by successful musicians has led Independent Artists from around the world looking to sign up with W.O.A International when it comes to breaking into the India and Dubai markets. The Independent No.1's Vol.3 features several of these artists that have been supported and promoted by W.O.A International via the Annual WOA India and Dubai Tours, the Goa Chillout Zone, WOA Artist Management Deals, the WOA TV Show, the WOAFM99 Radio show and high end Music Video Production and Promotion deals via the various divisions of W.O.A International.
"The compilation this year features Independent Artists from a multitude of mainstream Pop and Rock genres including niche genres like World Beat, Italian Rock, Tamil World Music and other interesting yet mainstream sounding genres making this album truly one of a kind" says W.O.A International Marketing Director, Wanda Alvares, "featuring artists from almost every corner of the world makes it a World album without actually having to be placed as a 'World Music' genre compilation giving all indie music fans something to enjoy and discover".
The Independent No.1's Vol.3 compilation Album is now available on iTunes, Amazon, CD Baby and various other online and offline stores starting today.
