Street Hawker To International Star, Here Is All You Should Know About Salle. Nigerian singer and songwriter Salle born in 2004 is a 17-year-old who rose to prominence when a video of her doing a freestyle went viral on social media. Before she was found, she was a street hawker who made a career peddling in Owerri, and she had an incredible voice.
She was distant from the country’s entertainment capital, Lagos, because she lived in Owerri. As a result, it was difficult for music executives and A&R executives to find her.

Salle, on the other hand, did not let this discourage her, and she continued to trust God that he would give a chance for her light to shine. She stayed involved in the choir and went to local music events to get a taste of performing on stage while hanging on to her religion.
Salle’s luck eventually changed as she was peddling her products on the streets of Owerri. While she was singing, some people heard her lovely voice. They approached her and asked if they could record her singing, which she agreed to.
The video, which she shared on Instagram and Twitter, went viral in a matter of hours, garnering thousands of likes and retweets.
