Nilufer Yanya - Thanks 4 Nothing

Another perfect marriage of tuneful soul and emotional indie from the rapidly rising prodigy

//

It's hard to break out of a relationship that you feel is your whole life. But sometimes, once it's done, you can look back and see all the red flags you ignored. Yanya conveys these truths with few words, sparse yet surprising music and soulful singing. Since breaking out last year, the 22-year old British/Turkish prodigy has been on a winning streak, slowly but surely dropping one gem after the other. We'll be following closely as she discreetly conquers the world.
