Nyanda

Nyanda’s career in music started as a member of the Pop/Reggae group Brick & Lace. In 2006, Akon signed the group to Konvict Muzik / Geffen Records and released their debut album, “Love Is Wicked”, in 2007. The album spawned four charting singles – “Never Never”, “Get That Clear”, “Bad to di Bone” and their biggest hit, “Love Is Wicked”, which was listed for 97 weeks in 7 different charts.

February 2013 marked the launch of Nyanda’s career as a solo artist with the release of her promotional single, “Trouble”. Produced by Black Lion, “Trouble” is a remix of Taylor Swift’s multi-platinum single “I Knew You Were Trouble”, which fuses reggae, dancehall and pop music.“Trouble” entered UK Music Week’s Top 30 Urban Club Charts in Week 7 (2013) and remained in the charts for 7 Weeks, peaking at #15.

Nyanda’s first official single, “Slippery When Wet”, was initially released as a free download through Soundcloud on 8 March 2013. “Slippery When Wet” entered UK Music Week’s Urban Club Charts in Week 27 (2013) and remained in the Top 30 for 5 weeks, peaking at #13. It was licensed and officially released later in the year by Cloud 9 (Benelux), Magic Records (Poland & Bulgaria) and Tropic Electric / InGrooves (Rest of the World). “Slippery When Wet” Won the Award for Best Reggae Song at the 2014 Lipstick Radio’s Indie Music Awards.

Nyanda released the electro fueled house track, “Cool & Deadly”, with South African DJs Euphonik and Fresh. “Cool & Deadly” was considered a South African Summer Anthem in 2013, as it climbed to #28 on South Africa Airplay Charts and reached #1 on 5FM’s Top 40. The music video for “Cool & Deadly” was done documentary style, with all footage being taken from Split Seconds, a 5-part TV series on Channel O showcasing the fast-paced look at Fresh and Euphonik in Miami during 2013′s Winter Music Conference.
