Natassja Jade
Atlanta, Georgia
Natassja is a soul music artist whose contribution to the genre challenges the notion of what contemporary soul music should be. Her urban-influenced and sometimes moody, folk-tinged arias involve more than a moderate degree of genre bending. This is an artist who is just as comfortable listening to the gritty elements of southern trap music as she is listening to Raheem DeVaughn soul, or the music of Clannad, Bjork and Thunderheist. From the folk of Dylan and Baez to the contemporary styling of Sade and Sting, Natassja steeps herself in music that moves the spirit.
Not bashful about taking creative license in her work, Natassja engages in the kind of habitual genre line-stepping that often threatens to re-define her category as something else. But the question of what genre her music fits into isn't as important to Natassja, as giving voice to the music she hears in her head. And we're glad of it, because she paints gorgeous mood-scapes with music that soothes and inspires. In short, Natassja creates music for the heart, mind, and soul.
