MUSIC: Mamiska - "What It Is"

Club X eMag brings to you a flaming hot new debutante on the scene. She goes by the name Mamiska. Armed with a multi-potent blend of a stunning visage, saucily flavoured vocals, fifty-fifty splice of Nigerian-Polish DNA and pulse racing musical composition sensibilities, Mamiska brings a freshness of vibe and edge not commonly associated with much of today's Naija gospel music. On this joint, "What It Is", she is fiercely brazen about her faith, taking you on a zoom ride over a spanking crunk/pop instrumentation by genius beatmaker, Mr J.

Born Mamiska (which means 'mother' in Polish) Kanayo in Port-Harcourt, she started singing at a young age. In her late teens she moved to Calabar and decided to take up singing by backing up a lot of upcoming artistes and non-denominational choirs in '05, and by '06 she had stints with a couple of dance/singing groups in Calabar, the last being 'The Revealed' of which she was an active member for 3 years before going the solo route in '08.

Having been influenced by a lot of artists like Anita Baker, Brandy, Lauryn hill..etc, she started working underground with indie producers like Beatoven, Mr J and Major Bangs to create her own unique sound. A rather unconventional singer majoring in genres of  RnB, Soul and Hiphop, her music is set to define the trends for a brand new generation of faith-based acts.
