Nneka was born in Nigeria in 1980 to a Nigerian father and a German mother. After moving to Hamburg at the age of 18, she began to pursue a singing career while studying for a degree in anthropology. In 2005, she released her debut album ‘Victim of Truth’, which received a great deal of critical acclaim. One of Nneka’s previous singles ‘Heartbeat’ – taken from her second album ‘No Longer at Ease’ – entered the Top 20 of the UK Singles Chart in 2009. Nneka was recently invited to join Nas and Damian Marley as support on the duo’s Distant Relatives Tour.
