Her sound is light-footed, fresh, and fun, with a Janelle Monae-esque flair for positive, fast-paced soul pop. Her voice is gorgeous, her hooks lush. It’s little wonder her debut album Cracks topped Danish charts, with her single “Deep Sleep” going Gold. A recent German tour with Jason Derülo kickstarted her cred throughout Europe.

The trouble with Nabiha, then, is that she’s still relatively unknown outside of Denmark — a mystery for sure, but one that is destined to change with her new Sony deal, her new edition album More Cracks, and her rock soul single “Trouble” — which recently made a splash appearance on the US show Basketball Wives.

The Copenhagen-born, West African singer Nabiha Bensouda is promising more treats in a 2012 album. In the meantime, enjoy her new single “Trouble” and her badass street view video.
