HOT OR NOT: NYA JADE
Friday, June 8, 2007
Meet Nya Jade - a San Francisco-based singer/songwriter who has already drawn critical acclaim throughout the Bay Area for her unique music and sound. Born in the West African country of Ghana and raised around the world, this Stanford graduate and entrepreneur created her own record label to do music her way. The duality of working as both artist and record label head has made her an exciting person to watch in the ever changing landscape of the music industry. Serving as a pre-med student until a life changing car-accident, Nya channeled pain and suffering into a determination to follow a dream. Also quite the humanitarian, Nya recently announced the launch of the NYA Foundation which benefits African youth with HIV/AIDS.
Nya’s first single “Live” off her debut album “My Denial” has been gaining alot of attention with the premiere of her video on VH1 Soul. Nya has most recently been touring with acts such as Corrine Bailey Rae, Maroon 5, and the Dave Matthews Band.
Nya is a very talented and intelligent woman, visit her website or myspace to learn more.

*Dear CL readers, you did not see Rihanna and I conversing. What you actually witnessed was CL testing out their new A.I. Celeb Chat software.
You will continue on with your lives as normal. This is just a…Fig Newton of your imagination.
On behalf of Rihanna and I,
Thank You.

Her music and voice is blah, but I can definitly see her CD being popular with the coffee house crowd. This will difinitley be one of the cd’s they carry in starbucks.
I don’t like her music, but I luv anybody from San Francsico! And she seems to have a good head on her shoulder. I wont be buying, but I wish her the best.
btw. that beyonce rihanna exchange was hilarious…lol

Nice Tracks… she has a very different sound. Her music will likely have worldwide appeal. And her humanitarian efforts are to be applauded too.
#44 - What does her beautiful dark complexion have to do with her talent?
You’d better wake up. That self-hatred is a suicide cocktail.
