HELEN BERHE-E.T BEYONCE.

Helen Berhe

Helen Berhe (a.k.a the Ethiopian Beyonce) is an Ethiopian rising star who is best known for her cover song “Uzaza Allina” which was originally released by Nada Algesa.

Since her childhood, Helen had a special affection for music and dance. She attended high school at Menen High School. Her love of music didn’t allow her to complete her high school. In 2002 Helen left for Bahrain and started working there as a stage performer in hotels earning some 500 USD a month.

There in Bahrain, she started working with Ethiopian artists like Abnet Agonafir, Minalush Reta and Ismael Idris. In 2004 She left Bahrain for Dubai.

In Dubai, she started performing at the Palm Hotel. During that time, Helen came in contact with the original singer of the cover she did “Uzaza Allina” Nada Algesa and started performing with her at the Sheraton Deira Hotel in Dubai.

In 2010 she released her new album titled “Tasfelegnaleh” (I need you!), which took three years to complete and was composed by two best known Ethiopian composers Abegaz kibrework and Wondimeneh Assefa. As a result, the album was well received by her fans and the general public. Helen worked on this album with talented people like Habtamu Bogale, Eyobel Berhanu, Zelalem Terefe, Tamrat Desta, Abel Mulugeta, Asnake Gebreyes, Alemayehu Demeke and Getish Mamo. This might be ordinary info but needless to say Helen is cute and talent is one thing the girl has listen to her tracks and if this the first ethiopian artist you have ever read about "jackpot" hehehe.
