Heartbeat is the latest drop from Edmonton MC Squintz (SQ). The London-based artist and producer was recently praised by Complex Magazine for having provided some of the ‘most valuable’ Grime releases in recent years.

A nice follow on from a very honest Heartbeat, Champion screams evolution of our underground Princess. Nyah demonstrates that she is independent, tenacious and is back with a track to be reckoned with! Not the first time Princess has taken her music from London to Ibiza, she proudly reintroduces herself to the music scene with her new single.

With the BBC Radio 1 A-listed 'Heartbeat' and 'Best African Act' MOBO under her belt, Nneka embarks on a five date UK tour following the success of her recently released album - the lush and visionary 'No Longer At Ease'.

Following the critical acclaim of 2006’s 'Victim Of Truth' ("As good as The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill" - Sunday Times), Nneka's second album 'No Longer At Ease' is released for the long hot summer of 2009 on 29th August, and it's every bit as lush and visionary as her first.

Well, what can I say? Quality! I receive a huge amount of CD’s each month and I have to say that 80% of them are, to put it bluntly, shit. So when I do pick up a half decent album it stands out like a green jacket with an orange belt.

Blessed by a voice dripping with shiver-inducing soul, Nigerian-born Nneka exudes a command of her craft with an individuality and intelligence rarely seen amongst today’s crop of soulful chanteuses.
