- Niyola
Pretty and armed with a voice that can disarm the hardened, Niyola should be among females in the frontline on the Nigerian music scene. Photo: Facebook
Soul singer, Niyola deserves better recognition even if there has not been any new release from her this year. Her previous songs are exciting and rich in melody.
Niyola got into the music mix in 2000 when she emerged runner up at the Amen Starlet Competition but began her professional music career in 2005 when she became associated with Trybe Records owned by Eldee. She recorded 3 singles before getting signed to EME ,working along with Banky W and Shaydee and spent some time with Wizkid and Skales who were with the label then.
In 2013, she dropped 2 hit singles – ‘Toh Bad’ and ‘Crazy’ laced with her warm and refreshing voice. Since then, she has gone on to work with the likes of Sound Sultan on ‘Belle No Be Showglass’, Banky W’s track – ‘Be My Lover’ and Lynxxx‘s ‘No Comment’.
Niyola, won the ‘Female Artist of the Year’ gong at NEA Awards last year, is yet to release a debut album but her recent track – ‘Love To Love You’ featuring Banky W is also a song one can mark as a favorite while we continue to expect more. For many of us who love cool music, Niyola is surely one of our favorite artists.
