Yinka Williams 'Takes Charge' of UK Schools Tour

Cheshunt singer-songwriter Yinka Williams will be taking on the topic of online safety as part of a schools tour this month.

With dates lined up in schools across London and the south east, 24-year old Yinka will perform to thousands of young people before opening up about her personal experiences with cyberbullying and discrimination.

Having already secured radio play on BBC Introducing with her dance-pop anthem, ‘Take Charge’, Yinka is all too familiar with the pros and cons of social media. “Being an artist means that you have to put yourself out there. Sometimes the feedback you receive can be positive, sometimes it’s negative. I’ve been doing this for such a long time now that I’m able to ignore negative comments online. But, for young people growing up, it can be harder to understand and even harder to ignore”, said Yinka.

Yinka, who is currently recording tracks for her debut album says that she grew up with strong female rolemodels like Beyonce, Amy Winehouse and Whitney Houston. She has been inspired so much by their dedicated and work ethic that she now hopes to inspire a new generation of performers through her schools tour.
