WHO IS EJA NLÁ

Rising Afro Fusion Star Bridges New York Grit with Lagos Spirit

Eja Nlá emerges as a refreshing voice in the global Afro fusion scene, embodying a unique duality that spans continents and cultures. Born and raised in the concrete jungle of New York City but deeply rooted in his Nigerian heritage, he represents a new wave of artists who genuinely live between worlds.

Growing up in a Christian household in Brooklyn, Eja Nlá’s musical journey began in the church choir. This foundation, combined with his high school experiences in Lagos, has shaped an artist who seamlessly blends the raw energy of New York with the vibrant rhythms of Nigeria.

“From songs of endearment to songs of empowerment – staying true to one’s craft is the real deal,” shares Eja Nlá, reflecting his commitment to authentic storytelling.

His recent single “Castaway,” released in November 2023, exemplifies his artistic evolution, narrating a powerful story of attraction, loss, and resilience.

What sets Eja Nlá apart is his ability to speak to multiple audiences authentically. Fluent in Yoruba and comfortable in both New York and Lagos, he represents a new generation of global artists who refuse to be boxed in. His music transcends genres, creating a fresh take on Afro fusion.

With a growing catalog and trajectory towards global success, Eja Nlá’s unique background positions him as an artist to watch in the evolving landscape of African music.

This Thursday, November 14th, 2023, Eja Nlá is set to release his latest single “3AM in Lekki,” capturing the artist’s ability to blend the bustling energy of Lagos with his personal experiences and emotions.
