Before she had even turned 21, Nija had written scores of Billboard Hot 100 hits. Now – at 23 – the three-time GRAMMY Award-winning contributor is focusing on her own music and relishing in the freedom to fully express herself. Her enticing, self-assured vocals shine on her self-penned, self-produced debut single, “Ease My Mind (Come Over),” which is an inventive mixture of R&B and drill. Her forthcoming debut project, which will be released in the fall of 2021, takes its cues from hip-hop’s confidence and pairs it with a no-nonsense approach all Nija’s own.
Born in New Jersey and now based in Los Angeles, Nija has demonstrated a knack for translating her experiences into relatable, emotional songs for artists such as Beyoncé, Cardi B, Ariana Grande, Drake, H.E.R., Lady Gaga and Maroon 5. Rolling Stone praises Nija as “one of music’s most sought-after songwriters.” InStyle noted, “Nothing is stopping Nija”
