Nicki Knightz has given the visual treatment to her single, “India Arie”.
Titled after the soulful American singer, the track from Nicki Knightz is a powerful one which sees the Hackney artist detail the relationship between her hair and her identity, with the accompanying visuals shedding light on the relationship between the two.
Speaking on the song, Nicki said: “When I was at my lowest with my hair and it was breaking, “I Am Not My Hair”, a song by India Arie really did make me feel empowered and not alone. I wanted to tell my story about my own struggles with my hair because the same way ‘I Am Not My Hair’ helped me overcome my depression, I wanted to be able to do that for somebody else.”
