Nneka – “My Home”
September 21, 2011 by Verse
Freshly unveiled is the official video for Nigerian/German singer, songwriter, musician and activist Nneka‘s first single from her forthcoming third solo studio album release Soul Is Heavy. The anthemic “My Home” gives us exactly what we want to hear from the young artist and reminds us of exactly why we fell in love with her. The video which was filmed in Nigeria tells a story of the struggles our brothers and sisters are facing in certain parts of Africa and brings them right to the forefront. Watch the visuals below.
Soul Is Heavy will be released soon. Stay locked for further details.

Footage from her album release party at SOBs, New York last month features afri-soul woman of the moment Nnekatalking about her music, her influences, her life experiences and responsibility of being an artist – chopped inbetween performances from the show (including rousing crowd favourite, ‘Heartbeat’).
From the perspective of one who has been a fan of her music for a couple of years now, I have to say this video does a fantastic job at encapsulating Nneka – right down to her nuances.
The essence of Nneka, purified into 9 minutes and 15 seconds.
