NNEKA - HEARTBEAT!!!

Born and raised in Warri, in the Delta region of Nigeria, Nneka Egbuna watched as the city and its citizens wrestled with the impact of new-found affluence. Three decades later, electrical blackouts are still a part of daily life in Nigeria, an oil-rich nation plagued by petrol shortages, where tribalism and disparity of wealth and political power further entrench divisions of class. "All that has a lot to do with why I am the way I am, despite the fact that I have now been able to travel a great deal, and see the world from a different angle".

At the age of 19, Nneka left Africa to Hamburg University, where she studied anthropology even as her musical career was building steam. With its marriage of timeless grooves, contemporary technology, and 21st century black consciousness, her 2005 debut Victim Of Truth was lauded by the British press. "As good as The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill," trumpeted The Sunday Times. Its 2008 follow-up, No Longer At Ease, impressed rock star Lenny Kravitz so profoundly that he immediately tapped her to accompany him on tour. In 2010, selections from both albums—including the international hit "Heartbeat"—were compiled for her US debut, Concrete Jungle, which showed North America what the rest of the world already knew: Nneka is a unique, formidable talent to be reckoned with.

Nneka's songs may begin with personal experiences and homegrown sentiments, but global appeal imbues her music and its messages. She transcends boundaries, both geographic and aesthetic. Regardless of the listener's mother tongue, there is an immediacy to Nneka's singing—be it pointed ("Don't Even Think") or poignant ("Stay," "Do You Love Me Now")—that anyone can appreciate. Nneka is indivisible from the world she inhabits, and her art reflects that on every level. "I am what you hear," she concludes, succinctly. "I wouldn't be able to separate my music from me."

"Personally lets not condemn our black brothers for the sins of their fathers and mothers, we're  not perfect and sometimes our imperfections makes us most beautiful and  very vulnerable I feel this whole intervention could have been done in private but I guess money was to be made...lets keep our family business private peoples!! The world already judges us on every little thing, to still air your shit out on national television that's just low, if you getting paid so be it...make your money,then your PR team sure be doing great getting you interviews and shit but honestly if if the issues faced is genuine deal with it in privacy amongst those that love you not on a tele box where the whole world can knit pick and condemn you even further!!" - TRW via The Life and Times
