According to a statement, Jodie, finalist of Idols West Africa, posted on her facebook wall the single, African Woman was endorsed by Tuface Idibia as a hit track. In a recent interview with a national newspaper, she said: "I am very excited about this because this is my debut album. After a long while, I believe this is the best time for this album to be released. I am not regretting the years that passed. To me, it brought out the best in me."
According to Jodie, who has a penchant for excellent work, she had been recording but was not satisfied with the work until she met her manager, who has turned things around for the best.
In a chat with her manager, David, he said Jodie's work is coming out soon and the music world had better watch out for it.
"Jodie is doing fine. Her album, African Woman is now out in the market and her fans can now grab their copy. You did not see her at the Headies because she was not invited", he said. Jodie whose real name is Joy Odiete dropped her first single, KuchiKuchi two years ago, a track that enjoyed massive airplay on radio stations across the country, even as the video became one of the most popular music videos in Nigerian airwaves.

Jodie carted away two awards out of the four nominations: Video of the Year and Best Highlife Video.
