Supermodel, Naomi Campbell has
officially confirmed to her curious fans that she is dating British
musician Skepta, whose real name is Joseph Junior Adenuga.
Skepta, who is 15 years younger than
the fashion icon, was born in North London on September 19, 1982, to
Nigerian immigrant parents.
There had been rumour about their
relationship, but Naomi, 47, confirmed it via an Instagram post on
Thursday, when she shared a GQ cover featuring her and her beau
cuddled close while wearing nothing but jewelry.
Skepta is the first man Naomi has been
linked to since Egyptian millionaire Louis C. Camilleri in July 2017,
the Mail Online reported.
He made his musical debut in 2007 with
the release of his cleverly titled album, Greatest Hits.
Skepta’s second album, Microphone
Champion, followed in 2009. Both albums were independent releases. By
the time his third album, Doin’ It Again, was released in 2011, he
had signed with AATW.
Skepta didn’t begin to really draw
attention until his fourth album, however. The project, titled
Konnichiwa, was released in May 2016. It won him a Mercury Prize.
Since gaining notoriety, he’s
collaborated and performed with major names in the music business
like Flatbush Zombies, Wizkid and Drake, Kanye West and more
The rapper has four siblings, two of
whom music aficionados may be familiar with. His one brother is a
grime rapper called Jme. Skepta has another sibling, Julie Adenuga,
who’s a DJ on Beats 1.
In addition to musical pursuits, Skepta
founded a clothing company called Mains. The brand dropped its first
line in June 2017.
