Nikka Costa 2 self-release next cd.

Billboard Bits: Nikka Costa,


Nikka Costa

February 08, 2008, 5:55 PM ET

Nikka Costa says she'll self-release her next, as-yet-untitled album, due in late spring or early summer. The former Virgin artist has a new song, "Maybe Baby," running in promos for the NBC series "Lipstick Jungle."

The new album will have a "deeper, more thoughtful" sound, the singer told Billboard on her way into the Black Eyed Peas' 4th Annual Peapod Foundation Benefit Concert in Los Angeles on Thursday (Feb. 7). "I wouldn't feel right doing a dance-only record" in a time of war, says Costa, though it's tempting "to get your get your groove on at a time like this."

Actually Prince has had a hand in a few of her songs with out taking credit. Also she is part of his 'circle'. She opens for him on occasion... she did the 3121 thing... etc

So she isn't a protege per say.... but she is an 'associate' of his for sure.

Hence forum title... 'associated artist'

i'd consider her an associate of wendy and lisa's before i did prince.

btw: none of the songs prince played on made it onto her album. neither the stuff with wendy and lisa on it to. errr. confused

I though hey love was a W&L track.

I agree Nikka has her own thing going on. More like Terence and Lenny, than an "associated" artist.

I hadn't heard any of her music until this past month. I like her quite a bit; I'm looking forward to this.
