BACKGROUND - triggers for abuse, alcoholism and drug abuse
sade was born as the love child of the son of a famous record producer and a wannabe singer. their affair started with her mother wanting to form a relationship with her father because of his connections with the music industry, but she quickly fell for him, despite the fact that he already had a son and was involved with another woman. her father viewed her mother as a passing fling, nothing more nothing less, and that pissed her mother off. when she fell pregnant with sade, she wanted her father to have nothing to do with her. despite him offering financial help and wanting to see the child that they created together, her mother pushed him away and refused to let him have any contact with sade.
her mother's singing career never took off, so she took up an everyday job as a crossing guard while sade was growing up. they struggled quite a bit, her mother having to take care of her all on her own due to her stubbornness and refusal to accept help from her father. from a young age, sade always asked her mother about the man who helped create her, and she was always given a story about how her father was a deadbeat, horrible man that wanted nothing to do with her and refused to be apart of her life. and like the naive child that she was, she believed her mother.
it didn't take long for her mother's disdain and bitterness towards her ex lover to turn towards sade. her mother had always been a heavy drinker, due to her own demons in her past, however her drinking became even worse after having sade. when she wasn't intoxicated, they had a decent dynamic and relationship. but the big issue was that her mother rarely wasn't intoxicated, and when she was under the influence of alcohol, her true colors shone bright and true. by the time sade was eight years old, she had learned how to avoid her mother during her drinking binges. but even then, it was difficult for her to avoid the abuse, both physical and mental, that her mother put her through whenever she was drunk and going through one of her dark moods, which happened more often than sade likes to dwell on.
the straw that broke the camel's back came about when sade was eleven years old. her mother got a boyfriend who was heavily involved in drugs and alcohol, and got her mother involved in substance abuse as well. if her home life was bad before, it became absolute hell after that. not only did she had to endure her mother, but her mother's boyfriend as well, whom her mother never protected her from. just when life seemed darker than ever, sade was finally granted some grace for once in her life. one of her teachers, whom she still keeps in contact with to this day, contacted CPS, who immediately had sade removed from her childhood home and was placed into the system. it didn't take long for them to track down her birth father, and she was placed into his care full time.
sade was surprised, to say the least, that her father wanted her in the first place. he had to sit an eleven year old sade down and tell her the truth; that it was her mother that had kept her away from him all these years. in fact, he had consistently tried to make contact with her for her entire life, only to be intercepted by her mother. the conversation evoked a multitude of feelings within sade. on one hand, she wanted to hate her mother; but she knew that she never could. sade was a soft hearted and sensitive soul without a hateful bone in her body. despite the negative choices her mother made and the treatment she endured from her, she could never bring herself to hate her. she treated her horribly, but, as few and far between as they were, they had their good moments; the times when her mother was sober and they would sing together, and her mother would tell her that she was destined for great things, as any mother would.
going from being flat broke and struggling with her mother in a tiny, two bedroom apartment in queens, to living in one of the nicest homes in manhattan was a huge culture shock to sade. the homes that she had only seen in passing had become an everyday part of her life. she had access to more money than she could fathom, and she'd be a liar if she tried to say that her preteen self didn't fall into it head first.
she was placed in the best performing arts school in the city, due to both her musical ability and her father's name, and quickly formed friendships with the other children there. due to her naive nature and kind heart, it was easy for her to be swept up in the wrong crowd. she was a good kid with a good heart, but just like her mother, she was very susceptible to dabbling in different things that she definitely shouldn't have as a teen. her friends had been expert partiers since their early teen years, some of them as early as preteens, and they were all too eager for fresh meat to introduce to their lifestyle.
by the time sade was sixteen, she was a hard partier - still is. parties every weekend, hanging out with friends late into the night during the week to drink and dabble in drugs here and there. she couldn't understand why drinking had turned her mother into such a monster when she felt so joyful, confident and loved whenever she was drunk. her father didn't approve of her new friend group, one of the only things she ever butted heads with her father about, and still until this day. but sade disregarded his worry over her, and continued hanging out with them.
after graduating from high school, sade decided to forgo college in favor of pursuing a career in music. from a young age, music had become her safe haven. whenever she was held up in her room as a child, hiding from her mother's wrath, she would listen to music that would help her escape. instead of talking about her problems, she would write them all out in the form of songs and poetry. music ran through her blood, and she wanted to lean into it, dedicate her life to it. it was one of the things that granted her true happiness in life.
she knew that cracking into the music industry would be a tough feat, which was why she didn't hesitate to use her father's name to cut through the red tape. she knew, and knows, that she's very privileged in that regard, and is very grateful for the leg up that she had in the industry because she wouldn't be where she is now without it. with her first album released the year she turned eighteen, she found almost instant success and wants to keep rising as an artist and honing her craft.
despite being happy with how things are in her music career, a part of her still wishes she had a better relationship with her mother. she's kept in contact with her on and off over the years, against her father's judgement, and their relationship is still as tumultuous as ever. but she refuses to stop trying, even when it seems like her mother wants nothing more than for sade to fail in life; just like she seemingly did.
PERSONALITY BREAKDOWN
as a kind hearted girl at her core, sade can be quite naive and impressionable. she likes to see the good in everyone and thinks that most people in the world are capable of turning over a new leaf and becoming better. she's always willing to give people second, third, sometimes even fourth chances, which has bitten her in the ass more often than not, but she refuses to think the worst of anyone until they break her trust multiple times - and even then, she can't really bring herself to hate most people.
she considers herself a social butterfly and a real girls' girl. it's not unusual to see her in the middle of a group of women, or praising and supporting women. she's become known as a friend collector in the industry, charming people and building friendships with them. it's not uncommon for her to be mentioned in passing by other celebrities as someone who joined them at a party, supported them, or was just a good friend to them. it's become an ongoing online joke that she knows everyone; which isn't too far off the mark.
as sweet as she is, sade can be absolutely stubborn, headstrong and set in her ways when it comes to something that she wants to do. when she has a goal in mind, she does anything she can to reach it, and won't allow anyone to stand in her way.
WANTED CONNECTION IDEAS
platonic soulmate - that one person that sade considers to be her platonic better half. a kindred spirit that she can rely on and really connects with on a deeper level. more than a best friend, more like a sibling.
squad (3 to 4 muses) - a tight knit circle of friends that sade leans on in her time of need, and always shows up for in their times of need. well known in the celebrity world for how close they are.
antagonist - the one person that can really get under her skin. they can make the sweet girl turn into a raging bitch and they always butt heads with one another.
music in me - a collaborator when it comes to music. someone she bounces her ideas off of, comes to for their opinions on tracks she's working on, and is the first person that she plays music for when she's finished with songs.
ex(es) - sade's a lover girl at heart, and has had flings and relationships alike. most of which ended on friendly terms, but a few had nasty fallouts.
party friends - the people that encourage sade's vices and indulges in her partying tendencies. always at the scene of the crime after a late night out drinking and dabbling in substances.
friend(s) with benefits (any gender / non gender conforming) - the few people that sade can hit up whenever she's in the mood for a little bit of fun.
childhood friend - a friend that's been there throughout her life and knows pretty much everything about what she's been through growing up. someone that's been constant and consistent for the majority of her life and will always hold a special place in her heart.
social media fueled enemy - whether it be because they're both in the music industry or whatever, their fans have somehow pitted them against each other and have formed conspiracies and theories about how much they hate each other; despite them actually being friends or not even knowing each other that well at all.
