Hassanah
As a Young girl in Nigeria, at the tender age of four, Hassanah Iroegbu began speaking Pidgin and singing along with classic West Indian and African artists on the Reggae saturated airwaves of Radio Jos. This musical experience planted the seed to start composing and performing. She has lived and studied in places such as California, Hawaii, and New York to even farther distances like New Zealand and Nigeria.
Drawing on this diversity of cultural influences and experience, Hassanah concocts unexpectedly fresh, crafty melodies and deep yet catchy lyrics. With a powerful blend of Urban sound, angelic vocal style and the combination of the best of R&B Jazz and Reggae, Hassanahs music delivers a great musical impact and leaves audiences captivated.
Band/artist history
While living in New York Hassanah recorded and collaborated with producers and artists from various musical backgrounds. from singing back up with Traditional African bands to Reggae and hip hop producers and artists from Brooklyn to the Bronx. She gained a following performing In venues as varied as small lounges and clubs to the Hammerstein Ballroom opening for De La Soul.
Hassanah won the award in the Urban category from cutting edge Italian/US fashion house, Diesel, as part of their 2003 U Music competition.
she was a selected performer at the Florida Grammy showcase in Miami sponsored by the Recording academy.
Most recently Hassanahs song Runaway was released in New Zealand and Europe on the compilation album
'Tonganchic' by Soane which is number one on the Indie NZ charts!

I'm influenced by a lot of different musical genres..I like to combine the strength of Reggae and African music with the pretty melodies you may find in say,..Brazilian Jazz. i try to tie it all togheher with an Urban influence.
Anything else?
