“Soul Mama” Fatima Koroma Fatima Koroma is a Finnish singer born in 1985. Fatima was introduced to Finnish public in national TV show Idols in 2011. Fatima’s nickname Soul Mama gives an indication of where her musical influences come from. Enthusiasm for music started in less than 2 years of age when Fatima heard Michael Jackson’s song Bad in the radio. Whenever Fatima heard the song she started dancing and even singing along. Fatima fell in love with the song so much that she got Jackson’s Bad record for her 2-year birthday. Fatima feels most comfortable with genres like jazz and soul which she feels has been slightly overshadowed by other styles of music in Finland. Artists influencing Fatima’s way of doing music include Stevie Wonder, Ray Charles, Ella Fitzgerald, Billie Holiday, Erykah Badu, Jill Scott, Tom Prättälä, Jamiroquai and Paul Simon. https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fatima-Koroma/102593973154894?fref=ts http://www.kermarecords.com/artist/fatima-koroma/ http://www.fatimakoroma.eu/videos/ Contact: fatimakoroma@kermarecords.com
