NIKITA KERING NAMED EQUAL AMBASSADOR BY SPOTIFY

Spotify has announced Nikita Kering’ as the EQUAL Ambassador for November, ahead of the release of her latest EP. Kering joins the group of featured female artists from the continent who exude confidence, compassion and, of course, fierceness. And she has all of this in spades, having built a formidable career at just 20 years old.

“As a young woman, making music has always been more than just vibes. It’s been a blessing. However, having to always keep a third eye open has been a big challenge. Like any other male-dominated field, it’s hard to know if my talent and expertise will be enough to get me to the top,” says Nikita.

“I’m so happy that platforms like EQUAL create a safe space where we can share our experiences as women and find ways in which this space can be safe for us all,” she adds. She joins Kenyans Muthoni Drummer Queen and Sylvia Ssaru, both of whom have been previous EQUAL Ambassadors.
