Who Knows Nneka The Nigerian International Singer?

Beautiful, smart and soulful as southern cornbread, Nneka could be the new Lauren Hill. Everything is right about this stunning debut: a great new voice, conscious lyrics and catchy hooks.
Born in Nigeria, twenty five years ago, Nneka moved to Germany where she has been singing professionally for the past few years. A few lucky breaks supporting visiting artists like Sean Paul have helped raise her profile but frankly the music does it all on its own.

I have been hitting repeat on her anthemic call to arms 'Africans' reflecting her frustration with the same old shit going down on the continent where we all come from. This 'vessel of full content' eschews the usual materialist agenda in favour of a more spiritual path on 'Material Things' to a pumping beat and funky organ. She hits out at critics who say she is too young to have such strong opinions. Personally, although I don't buy the God stuff, it's a refreshing change to hear someone with something positive to say, especially when it's all so damn funky.

Ranging between pure hip hop and soulful ballads, Nneka never loses the deep soulful funk that is her husky trademark sound, and every track is a winner.
