Legendary Nigerian Pop and reggae group was led by Cliff Nwaire David now late. He died in 2009 (lived 1945- died 2009) and better known as “Cliff David”
Members of Cloud 7 were:
Ben Jagga, Cliff David, Johnbull Iwuamadi, Pat Akpor, Sam Bass, Sunny Dewol, Tom Brown
Cloud 7 group released five albums between 1978 and 1987, were one of the most popular music acts in Nigeria, with their hit “Beautiful Woman” in particular resonating as an evergreen classic.
In early 2000s, David, the leader of the group settled in Aba and dedicated his life to evangelism, even releasing a gospel album called Thank You Jesus.
Well, Cliff David, tried a new band “Cliff David and the Cloud 7, with an album “reconstruction.” It was not a commercial success due to bad remix and mastering. Cliff passed on in 2009 and
was buried in Ikperejere, Ihitte-Uboma Local Government Area, Imo State. May his soul rest in peace, and may his music live on.
