Libianca’s ‘People’ has made history as it becomes the highest charting African song on the UK Official Single chart.
Cameroonian-American single Libianca broke into the mainstream with her single ‘People’ which talks about the sadness and loneliness of an increasingly difficult and individualistic society.
