She is so down to earth and just soulful. A real inspiration to female artists, at least for me. She is such an amazing musical person. I can't wait to see what her daughter does when she grows up :D

yay, it's NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIkka!!!! doncha just wanna put her in your pocket...? i hate that she identifies with being "white" because she isn't ~ despite the "F.W.B." identity [so featured on a belt buckle as a superhero in "Everybody's...."] she's a good deal Latina. either way, homegirl writes good music, plays with good musicians and she can SANG!!!!

I don't buy this this about " The white soul singer" good music is good music. i don't like when she says blacks are not doing this type of music. Angie stone, Ledisi, and erkah badu do soul and funk. plus Nikka, Duffy, and Amy winehouse are not doing nothing new, soul singer's haven't already done it is like a slap in the face to the real soul and funk singers.

cool interview. NPR is a great source for knowledge. Nikka is a wonderful musician who creates great music and in the world of crappy music she is a breath of fresh air!

This woman is a force to be reckoned with, she's been one of my favorites since 2001.

Thanks for posting this, I heart NPR and Nikka!
