V-Kurated #19 - Mahina, Nsangu

V-Kurated puts emerging Belgian talent in the spotlight with free concerts at VK. This edition brings Nsangu and Mahina together on stage. Nsangu blends neo-soul with French chanson. She has shaped influences from musical icons like Erykah Badu, Sade, Charles Aznavour and Jill Scott into a style she calls “Expressif”: powerful yet sensitive, with a strong theatrical presence. During her performances, each song almost becomes a character of its own. For Mahina, percussion drives a personal sound full of introspection, spirituality and emotion. She blends soul, R&B, reggae, Afro-inspired melodies and electronic and acoustic sounds. She also has theatre experience, including productions by KVS & NNT. On her EP "Zaza", she explores love, faith, vulnerability and resilience. Two distinctive artists, one free night to discover new Belgian talent.
