Lemar

Lemar Izubundu Nnagdziem Obika, known mononymously as Lemar, is an English singer, songwriter and record producer who rose to prominence in the early 2000s following his appearance on the BBC talent competition Fame Academy. After finishing third on the programme's first series in 2002, he signed a recording contract with Sony BMG. Lemar released his debut studio album, Dedicated, in 2003. The album produced the UK top 10 singles "Dance", "50/50" and "Another Day", and was certified double platinum by the British Phonographic Industry. His second album, Time to Grow, also achieved double platinum certification and included the single "If There's Any Justice", which peaked at number three on the UK Singles Chart. His success coincided with a wider resurgence of British contemporary soul and R&B artists during the 2000s. Over the course of his career, Lemar has released seven UK top 10 singles and ten UK top 20 singles, and has sold more than two million albums in the United Kingdom.
