Nneka
No Longer at Ease

MC Melstar takes an emotional journey with Nneka. Bold, beautiful, and empowered. Nneka’s follow up album, No Longer at Ease, goes deeper and deeper – so deep that it stirs all your emotions from an initial exhilarating rush to searing empathetic pain. A very poignant title – at ease is something you won’t be. The rhythm, flow and melody wrapped together in this album is Nneka’s heart on her sleeve, Nneka's herstory.
