Video: Niniola Talks Afro-House and Getting Co-Signs From Timbaland & Drake
We sit down with the Nigerian singer for our latest installment of 'Moments With'
Niniola is the Nigerian queen of afro-house.
Through massive singles like "Maradona" and "Bana"—and standout albums like This Is Me—the singer has taken the throne as the leading artist pushing a blend of afro-pop and house. She's continued that upward trend with more recent drops like "Boda Sodiq" and "Designer." The artist was also one of OkayAfrica's 2019 100 Women honorees.
Niniola sits down with us for this latest edition of Moments With, in which she talks about growing up in Nigeria, the success of "Maradona," and getting recent co-signs from Timbaland and Drake.
