After Namika presented her brand new album "Que Walou" on her first tour of the same name, it continues in a big way from November 2019.
Born and raised in Frankfurt, hip-hop was Namika's main source of musical inspiration from the very beginning. When she was about nine, she started rapping: "That was more playful. My cousin and I were the same age and spent a lot of time at our grandparents' house. There we took turns beatboxing and rapping."
Many years later, Namika can rap like the dickens and knows all the codes, but only serves the usual hip-hop clichés of street and milieu in Germany to a limited extent, from which the more interesting part of the American competition has long since emancipated itself.
On her 2015 debut "Nador", the musician then hinted at her enormous talent on a broad scale for the first time. The first single "Lieblingsmensch" was at the top of the charts for weeks, the album was awarded gold.
Namika's new album "Que Walou" is now the logical continuation of "Nador" - and at the same time its consistent further development. Namika has matured artistically through the experiences of the past two years. "Que Walou" is an expression from central Morocco and means "like nothing" or "for nothing". That's exactly how the album sounds now: light, bouncy, seemingly effortless.
