<p>St Aladin has been singing and performing on stage right from the last 3 years of his High School education at St. Murumba College in Jos, Nigeria.</p> <p>A year after his graduation from High School in 1992, he joined and followed a reggae band to the Capital City Lagos where he continued to horn his performing and songwriting skills.</p> <p>The album "It&acute;s All About You" was recorded from 2007 to 2009 and marks the beginning of a new period in St Aladin&acute;s life, when he found a deep spirituality that helped him master difficult times. He started composing and singing anew, and every single note and every word breathes his appreciation of God being with him.&nbsp;</p> <p>Back to history: In the year 2000, he had the opportunity to record and release an album which was produced by O.J.B Jezreel and released on Z-Mirage Music label.</p> <p>A song from the album spread like wildfire and topped Charts from North to the South of Nigeria. The song in question - Aladin Mai Gemu - became a street anthem. As a result, he had many performances with his nine piece band called "The Villagers".</p> <p>It was the a dream come true! St Aladin did not know God had something more in store for him. He was already a christian but did not know Jesus Christ deeply. Despite the success, his life was in a turmoil and many questions were begging for answers. In 2002, he migrated to Austria and it wasn&acute;t long before he started meeting and working with the Creme-de-la- Creme of the Austrian Electronic Music&nbsp; scene, like I- Wolf, Cay Taylan, Rodney Hunter and Megablast.</p><p>Some years after and the answers started coming into his life: " Now I know to a large extent why my road has been rough! Now I have re-discovered my voice! Now I know why I was called to sing! Now I see beyond my nose and I sing beyond my mouth! It is no longer just I who sings,but the Holy Spirit living in me. And I feel so awesome that God can use a Sinner like me to bless people! I thank Jesus for that sacrifice on the cross which paid for my freedom! A freedom that propels me to sing from the deepest corners of my heart."</p>
