A Nigerian heiress, whose father is said to be one of the world’s wealthiest men, has set her sights on becoming the next Rihanna.
Ambimbola ‘Bim’ Fernandez, the daughter of gemstone entrepreneur and former UN ambassador Antonio Deinde Fernandez, has celebrated the release of her first single by sitting down for an interview with the New York Post. The 24-year-old, who is based in New York, told the paper that she has embarked on her career without the help of her dad, who is reportedly worth a staggering $8.7 billion.
Miss Fernandez’s first single ‘Let’s Take It Naked’ was released today on SMH Records’ site, with an iTunes roll-out expected soon. She cites Rihanna as one of her biggest musical inspirations.
‘Money can’t buy a record deal,’ she said of her situation. ‘It can’t buy good music. You can either sing or you can’t.’
'Unfortunately, everyone’s perception of socialites has been pretty accurate so far, which is what I want to change'
A song about nakedness is perhaps a little more explicit than what one would expect from a well-heeled socialite, but Miss Fernandez says that ‘it’s not even that racy of a song!
'It’s very poppy, like, “I think you’re cute! Do you like me? So let’s get naked!” I want it to be that song where it’s like, “Turn that song on! Let’s get ready! Let’s do shots!”’
Shes cute but not on a level where she can be the next Rih, we all know that the industry are not her for a darker tone girl, no shade they all want a bey, rih, alicia type of girl...
She's not pretty enough, she's too dark complected, and she has the obscenely rich thing also going against her.
Honestly she may make it in urban but contemporary radio has never used black woman making strictly pop.
Plus that song is the pits.

She could'v avoided the whole rich thing same way Lana did but the bitch is beyond rich, shes filthy RICH...which is a stigma i can't handle from an artist..
I actually read the article a few days ago because I got a google alert for Rihanna.
She isn't humble at all and for her to think she got a record deal without her daddies help
Giiirrrr please
