Nneka ft. M-1 & General Steele - Changes (J. Period Remix)

Nneka - Changes (J. Period Remix)

Artist: Nneka

Producer: DJ J. Period

Album: The Madness (Onye-Ala Mixtape)

Label: Sony Music Ent. Germany

It’s a mad, mad, mad, mad world, and DJBooth newcomer Nneka is using her serious musical talents to chronicle the globe’s madness. A Nigerian born singer who relocated to Germany and is just now beginning to break into the U.S., Nneka is introducing herself to our pages with the politically charged Changes, a softly moving but revolutionary track that refuses to be taken lightly. While producer and frequent collaborator J. Period spins an entrancing beat complete with a Biggie vocal sample, lyrical collaborators General Steele and M-1 (of Dead Prez fame) drop verses aimed at inspiring some truly independent hip-hop thought: “I’m a change maker, like Marcus Garvey in Jamaica.” As far as Nneka is concerned, it’s hard to truly get a read on her skills with only a hook, so all I can say it that I want to hear more. For more globally informed music be sure to check out Nneka’s The Madness (Onye-Ala) Mixtape, slated to set a match to the world on December 15.

DJ Z DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 11651	Rating: DJ Z's Top Rated Songs I am honestly pissed off that we have not featured Nneka before now. After doing my due diligence and researching her worldly buzz, I am ashamed she wasn't on our radar earlier. Dope record. More to come... Follow @DJBooth

Nathan S. DJ Booth Crew Total Ratings: 2476	Rating: Nathan S.'s Top Rated Songs Shame on you Z, shame on you. (Don't beat yourself up, Nneka's not exactly a household name...yet). Anyway, fair or not, this mostly just makes me want to break out my copy of Get Free and listed to some old school Dead Prez, who would have killed this production. Regardless, the next time I come across a Nneka song I'm listening, no doubt.
