Akua Naru Booking Agency Profile

Book Akua Naru for your next corporate event, function, or private party.
Akua Naru and The Ruff Pack (Matthias Loescher, Stephan Kondert) collaborate on "the Black fantastic." The Ruff Pack's characteristic aural aggressiveness frames akua naru's iconic political and poetic poetry. A 7-track head nod call-to-action with live hip hop, soul, trap, jazz, and the undiscovered. "the Black magnificent" refers to akua's focus on Black strength and resilience under peril. Joy and tenacity in a world dedicated to the contrary. These tracks give an audio journal, chronicling recent motherhood and new life to lamenting the senseless loss of those unfairly gunned down, from a demand for restitution to a call for radical acts of tenderness, joy, and interpersonal justice in a not yet post-pandemic society. "The Black magnificent" is an experience, not just an album.

akua naru's 2011 first album, "The Journey Aflame," introduced a colossal force of Liberation politics on beats, a real wordsmith whose music highlights the stories of Black women through rhyme, from Jazz to Soul. Cornel West called her "Toni Morrison of Hip Hop." Like her debut album, akua naru's path is on fire. Since 2011, she's published four albums: "...the voyage aflame," "Live & Aflame Sessions," "The Miner's Canary," and "The Blackest Joy." Her upcoming EP, "The Black Magnificent," is a collaboration with Brooklyn duo The Ruff Pack. Tony Allen, Eric Benét, Angelique Kidjo, Tuneyards, Questlove, Georgia Anne Muldrow, Christian Scott, Rah Digga, Mulatu Astatke, Bernard Purdie, and Cody ChesnuTT are among Naru's collaborators. Her 6-piece+ band has performed in over 50 countries on 5 continents. Her art honors soul music's past and the groundbreaking Black women artist tradition it builds on..

Also, their speaking fee might be different than the fee shown for the cost to perform or to just appear. Popularity, career stage, along with current demand will cause fluctuations in their speaking price as well. The final booking price may be more than what is shown, but you should at least have a budget within that range for them to consider an appearance, performance or speaking engagement.
