Portia Clark

Portia Clark (born 11 July 1990) is a Zambian R&B and pop singer, songwriter, and philanthropist.

Portio was born in Lusaka, Zambia in 1990. Her father was a member of a South African anti-apartheid movement and was killed under unclear circumstances when she was one years old.

In 2014, she released her debut single "Hope" which she co wrote with Zambian renowned Gospel artist Mutamula Mwale. The song has since been used for several major charitable events and contributed towards millions of dollars of fundraising. "Hope" was performed at one of Americas largest fundraising evenings being the Starkey Hearing Foundation annual Gala in Minneapolis which was held on 26 July 2015 where Portia performed the song with live orchestra led by Paul Petterson in front of two former Presidents being President George Bush and President Bill Clinton and on the same stage as Katy Perry.

She started singing when she was just 8 years of age at Temple of Power Church in Livingston, Zambia and then joined vessels of praise at Capitol Christian Worship Centre in Lusaka at the age of 11.

As of September 2015, Clark is recording her debut album in Australia, USA and Zambia which features the eldest son of Dr Dre, Curtis Young.

After only launching her career in 2015 she has already been nominated for best Zambian representative at the Born and Bred video awards.

Clark is currently the Zambian Ambassador for NGO Matter Australia and works to reduce the mortality rate at Zambia's largest malnutrition facility.
