Nneka performs “Heartbeat” LIVE @ the Wiltern in LA May 29th 2010
Nneka and I are reppin’ Nigeria hard. This woman is a beautiful spirit on an incredible path to changing something of great significance for our country. As we embark on a journey towards national healing and 50 years of our country’s independence from hundreds of years of colonization– our music will keep us from falling apart. I’m looking forward to watching Nneka settle into her role as a leader of our new soul-songwriter triBe. She is inspiring many woman to invest in their power and natural effortless beauty. I’m looking forward to working on a song together with sister Nneka. I’ll manifest the seed on my June trip to Nigeria next week. Ill start something for us.
I’ll be shooting the video for SUPER EAGLES Shine Like the Lights! My promo team reports we have song placement circulating in Abuja of Shine Like the Lights playing in the background when news anchors report on our National Soccer Team and their road to success at the FIFA 2010 World Cup.
Check out this video. My favorite song of the entire evening. Fyi- It was REALLY difficult to stand still and capture this video. I really wanted to dance. Listen for my warrior songstress battle cry when Nneka transitions from her pre-tribute into Heartbeat.
