Just ‘google’ this chick. You will get tons!

Nneka’s been on European charts since ‘05. Of course being in the U.S. I hadn’t heard of her until just now…better late than never! She’s freakin’ amazing (besides being cute–hehe), and her voice is beautiful! Basically people are saying she’s the next Lauryn Hill, and honestly I think she’s got it. I already love “Heartbeat” and “The Uncomfortable Truth”

Even though Nneka sings more than raps, she names hip hop as her primary musical root and most important source of inspiration, while citing artists such as Fela Kuti and Bob Marley as well as contemporary rappers Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Mobb Deep, and Lauryn Hill as key influences in her own pursuit of musical recognition.


Feb. 2 marks the release of her debut stateside album, Concrete Jungle.

Tune in to “The Late Show with David Letterman” the following night to catch Nneka’s U.S. late night television debut.–Pollstar
