‘Soul is Heavy’ is the new album from the award winning songwriter, Nneka. An effortlessly balanced combination of hip-hop beats, reggae grooves, brass riffs and African-pop are the canvas for the motif of love, pain, politics and God.Since the release of her last album, ‘No Longer At Ease’, Nneka has played over 150 shows in front of 500.000 people. Appearances at South by South West, Glastonbury and Newport Folk Festival are in addition to supporting Lenny Kravitz, Nas & Damian Marley (“Distant Relatives”), The Roots, Gnarls Barkley and a sought after slot on the David Letterman show.
