Call for Papers: PopMatters Celebrates The Jam in Massive Special Section

Nneka Announces Tour + Download Remix of "My Home"

Thursday, Feb 2, 2012
Nneka teases a new album and offers up a remix for you to download.

On January 17th, Nneka previewed a few of her new songs in New York’s tiny club, Cielo. The line was long to get in when the doors opened for the free show since the bouncers were strict about checking coats. It even creating some difficulty for Nneka and her friends but it wasn’t long after that she began her short, intimate performance.


Shortly after, she announced a proper US tour to support the US release of her latest album, Soul is Heavy out at the end of February.

Nneka clearly views pop art as a mechanism for transformation and vision, in the way that John Lennon and Bob Marley used both in a dizzying concoction of myth and talent.
