Bio
Nikena is a Caribbean-born artist whose music radiates love, authenticity, and cultural pride. Love serves as the heartbeat of her artistry, inspiring every lyric, melody, and performance. Her singles “Hold Me” and “Surprise” each explore love from distinct perspectives, one through vibrant Caribbean rhythms and the other through soulful R&B tones, yet both remain unmistakably her.Nikena’s creative process is as authentic as her sound. She records herself twice, first in her home studio where ideas flow freely, and then in a professional studio for the final cut. Writing often takes place at home or in peaceful outdoor spaces, allowing her to stay comfortable and inspired throughout the process.“When I’m writing at home, I can just be myself and play around with the song however I want. Whenever something comes to me, morning or night, I can immediately bring it to life,” she says.Songwriting is Nikena’s favorite part of creating music. She recently experienced a full circle moment that reminded her how far she’s come as an artist.“I was printing my lyrics the other day, and it hit me. I used to do that for other artists growing up. Now I’m doing it for my own music,” she reflects.Her single “Hold Me” holds special meaning in her catalog, blending dancehall and pop in a way that celebrates her Caribbean roots. The song’s vibrant percussion and gentle melody reflect both her heritage and her personal evolution.“As someone of Caribbean descent, it’s important for me to fully express who I am without holding back. My culture shapes my identity as an artist. Authenticity matters to me, every song I write comes from personal experience,” she explains.The accompanying music video for “Hold Me” captures the essence of Caribbean energy, from club scenes and colorful outfits to wine-based choreography, all visualized through Nikena’s creative vision. Similarly, her R&B-infused single “Surprise” takes a more intimate approach, showcasing her emotional depth and versatility as both a writer and performer.Creating her debut album This Is Me, set for release in October, has been a deeply rewarding journey. The process taught Nikena patience and trust in her creativity, understanding that inspiration arrives in its own time.“It had been about five years since my first single, and I realized there’s no better time than now to pour my heart into a full-length project,” she shares.Originally planning to release an EP, Nikena chose instead to craft a complete body of work that reflects her growth, resilience, and joy as an artist.Her love for performing is another driving force. From open mics and outdoor festivals to intimate showcases and listening parties, each stage experience fuels her passion for connection.“I love seeing people have a good time. It’s fulfilling to share that energy with them,” she says.For Nikena, authenticity is everything. She continues to evolve as an artist who leads with love and self-belief.
