Seriously sexy Igbo soul queen Nnena, redefined her presence in 9ja Entertainment in 2004 with her energetic performance at Y’ello fest organized by MTN. She started out singing as a hobby at the age of ten, with a three girl choir group in secondary school. This passion grew and she had her first Demo Cd ENPATURE completed in 2002 with the hit track ‘SO’. MISSIN (Her first hit single from her second album) was done in 2004. She has been unstoppable ever since. Nnena confesses “My Music is a door way to my soul which opens up a world of consciousness which feeds your soul leaving totally overwhelmed and satisfied”. Her spectacular presence began with a journey that started some two decades ago.

A vast rich country side of Uga Village in Anambra State, Nigeria witnessed the birth of this soul queen in the 80s, just when POP Music was being defined; no wonder she has music in her veins. Nnena is the last born of five but this has not affected her musical definition and creativity. Nnena is not new to hardship as she was raised singly by her mother on the occurrence of her father’s death when she was only twelve.

All that transformed her into a poet, didactic storyteller, an inspiring songstress, an energetic dancer, and guitarist. She is also a part-time music producer. Writing songs to Nnena is a spiritual and transcendental experience because her passionate love for music is accentuated through the way she delivers. She adores her guitar and even has a name for it, OMALI adapted from omalicha in Ibo dialect which means “Beautiful”. She says “Beauty is not all about the booty; it is not totally about great looks and lots of oomph! But about the you in you which makes the you, who you are”. One of the things that inspire Nnena is her emotion and personal experiences as well as her various desires to pursue a cause and finish it.

“I believe in GOD, LOVE, and being myself even if it means being odd and mysterious and eccentric, even eccentricity can be eclectic” says Nnena. I say the you who make the you who you are, is simply talented beyond words.

This is why she has enjoyed collaborations with 9ja finest in Entertainment, people like Mode9, Silver Saddih, etc. Nnena’s Cd would be hitting stores soon
