A multi-platinum, chart-topping and multi award-winning artist, followed by over 20 million fans around the world, Aya Nakamura has already claimed her role as one of the most important figures in contemporary French music.

With a unique style of lyrics and a fresh take on Afrobeats, Pop, R&B and the Caribbean dance sounds of Zouk, Aya Nakamura rose to fame with the #1 hits Djadja, Copines or Pookie and soon became the most listened to Francophone singer in the world.

Born Aya Danioko in Mali and coming from a family of griots (West African storytellers, praise singers & poets of oral tradition), the Paris-based singer launched into music taking the name Nakamura, after the character Hiro Nakamura of the NBC Heroes science fiction series.

Amassing over six billion streams, her repertoire includes the latest #1 album ‘DNK’, the France Music Award-winning ‘Aya’, the over one million-selling breakthrough album ‘Nakamura’ and the platinum-certified debut album ‘Journal Intime’.
