OMG - I had to keep staring at the picture to make sure it wasn't a real (camera) picture. So beautiful and such an artistic feat. Kudos Adae for being selected as the model for the Mother. Where is the mural located?


@DawkinsDiva the mural is located in Philadelphia

The name is Ade a short form of a longer Yoruba name of which Ade is a part of.

There is a meaning of royalty or "crown" within her full name.   

For instance, my name is Titilayo, one who gives joy, and the nickname or short form is Titi.  All Yoruba names mean something, either a wish for them, a description of their birth, or a quality they seem to have.

Yoruba is an ethnic group mostly in Nigeria but also in Benin and Togo.


You know this how? Are you friends with her?


I am Yoruba.  And I have been following her career for awhile.   We have a proud culture.
