For Empress Nelly, her journey into the exciting world of music began at the age of 3 as she was heavily influenced by her parents’ musical performances throughout her childhood. Their love for music was passed down to her, especially as her mother has been an R&B vocalist for over 25 years while her dad has played the bass guitar and other musical instruments for over 30 years. Both still perform and tour today. At the age of 3, Empress Nelly began to mimic the way her parents performed on stage in return; this inspired her to tap into her natural born talent as a musician and vocalist. Some of Empress Nelly’s other musical influences have come from Artists such as Anita Baker, Queen Ifrica, Nina Simone, Bob Marley, Maxwell, Beres Hammond, Dezarie, Garnett Silk, Sister Carol, Dennis Brown, Lisa Fischer, Jill Scott, India Arie, Lauryn Hill, and Angela Winbush.

Empress Nelly’s love for music drives her to reach out to the younger generation, especially young girls and women, inspiring them through her music to have a positive outlook on life and empowering them to strengthen their self-worth. Being a wife and mother of three little ones, this is especially important to her as their role model. One Love!
