New artist Nikeita has found a way to mix technology and R&B into an attractive new sound that we’re enjoying.
Born in Brooklyn, NY of Caribbean heritage, Nikeita Crichlow has been immersed in the colorful world of music from the start. Singing and playing several instruments from a young age, both in school and church, honed Nikeita’s ear for music. Having an aptitude for the field of Information Technology, Nikeita coupled her technical background with the fundamentals of music and performance. This merger of skill sets allowed for an additional creative expansion into the world recording engineering and music production.
In 2010, Nikeita relocated to Los Angeles, CA and has regularly been working a number of artists. We first heard her on Boney James’ album futuresoul.
Now Nikeita is working on her own music, and we’re digging her new single. “Say Yes” opens with an electronic sound before setting into a soulful groove, with her providing her pristine vocals over the top. It all works well.
“Say Yes” is our newest SoulTracks First Listen. Check it out below and tell us what you think!
