NNENNA KING - Only You (Single)
“Only You” is a warm, intimate Alt R&B record woven with smoky Afro soul textures. Built around atmospheric pads, soft percussion and hypnotic vocals, the track sits somewhere between Tems’ soulful depth and Sade’s timeless calm, while carving out a lane that is unmistakably NNENNA KING.
Produced by QisRetired and written by NNENNA KING and SNE, the record captures late night vulnerability, emotional clarity and a stripped back honesty that lets the storytelling shine.
NNENNA KING is a London born Nigerian soul artist celebrated for her rich, emotive voice and captivating stage presence. A graduate of the world renowned BRIT School, whose alumni include Adele and Amy Winehouse, she has fast become one of the UK’s most compelling emerging voices, crafting a sound that blends classic soul influences (Sade, Lauryn Hill, Anita Baker) with the modern Afro fusion of artists like Tems and Odeal.
Her career highlights include BBC Three’s Project Icon, The Voice UK, a National Reality TV Award for Best Performance, supporting British soul legend Omar at two sold out Jazz Café shows, performing in Lagos at Flytime Festival with Kizz Daniel, and radio support across BBC Radio 1, BBC Introducing, and BBC London. She continues to carve a lane that sits confidently between alternative R&B and atmospheric Afro soul.
“Only You” marks the beginning of a new era, deeper, richer and more defined.
