Nneka. Official Group.

Beautiful, smart and soulful as southern cornbread, Nneka could be the new Lauryn 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. 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.
