Soul Is Heavy

Souls Is Heavy is the new album from the award winning singer/songwriter, Nneka. An effortlessly balanced combination of hip hop beats, reggae grooves, brass riffs and African-pop are the canvas for the motif of love, pain, politics and God. Nneka's natural energy channels hope and optimism throughout her writing, but her signature steeliness and stark life observations are maintained. This isn't an alubm that has to be pretentious to stand out. It is real, honest, true to itself and bursting with feeling.
