Pure Nneka: A 9-Minute Introduction
1st March 2010
|In Music
Footage from her album release party at SOBs, New York last month features afri-soul woman of the moment Nneka talking about her music, her influences, her life experiences and responsibility of being an artist – chopped inbetween performances from the show (including rousing crowd favourite, ‘Heartbeat’).
From the perspective of one who has been a fan of her music for a couple of years now, I have to say this video does a fantastic job at encapsulating Nneka – right down to her nuances.
The essence of Nneka, purified into 9 minutes and 15 seconds.

Bonus: watch Nneka perform ‘Heartbeat” on the Late Show with David Letterman:

Beautiful girl. I thank God for artists such as Nneka. Raw, natural and full of substance rather than mere style; the perfect antidote to the many meretricious (female) acts out there right now. I’m glad things are gathering momentum for her.
