Bella Alubo

Bella Alubo (born Mabel Oine Alubo, 9 August 1993) is a Nigerian musician, alternative R&B, hip-hop singer and songwriter, known for her collaborative EP, "Late Night Vibrations" with Ycee. She's signed to Benin City Entertainment.

Alubo was born and raised in Jos, Nigeria. She often wrote poems as a child.

Growing up, Bella was influenced by the music of 2Baba, one of the most successful artists from his tribe. She recalls hearing 2Baba’s “African Queen” at a young age and understanding its clear depiction of love and admiration, despite his age.

This early exposure to Nigerian classics inspired his creative outlook. Years later, he wrote “African King” as a personal manifestation of his ideal version of love. Blending R&B with a subtle trap rhythm, the song’s modern sound led his label to include it on his debut album.
