Description 
Nabiha Bensouda, the award-winning, chart-topping Danish-African pop soul-singer, is currently dominating the pop music scene in Scandinavia and is poised and ready to take on the US. In February 2010, Nabiha released her debut album ’Cracks’ to critical acclaim. ’Deep Sleep,’ the first single from the album, premiered on MTVU and was named ’Song of the Day’ on international tastemaker site Popjustice. ’Cracks’ propelled Nabiha into the international spotlight: She was named ’Artist of the Year’ at The Best African Achievement Awards and was nominated for ’New Artist of the Year’ at the Danish Music Awards and both ’Listener’s Hit of the Year’ and ’New Talent of the Year’ at the National Radio Awards. In 2010 alone she was invited to support James Morrison, Jason Derulo, Jamie Cullum, and Rasmus Seebach (Danish 10x Platinum selling artist) on their sold out tours in Denmark and Germany. Nabiha was also invited to perform at the Reperbahn Festival, the Skanderborg Festival, the SPOT Festival, Earth Hour, and the Danish National Football Stadium, which lead to a strong positive review from leading Danish music magazine Gaffa (equivalent to NME in the US) Nabiha is currently writing and recording her next album, due out in 2012.
