HER STORY…….  Born Nene Johnson on the 16th of April, and hails from Abia state. She is a captivating singer, a multifaceted


entertainer and an entrepreneur. She's the 3rd child of six siblings, she graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in English Language from the Lagos State University [LASU] in 2011.
LOVE FOR MUSIC
This young lady  had an uncontrollable craving for music at a very tender age, as she's been in different choirs while growing up in her early days as a minor. Things became more serious and professional in her teenage years.
In 2005, NEJ met Mona Okoroalum her friend and ex band mate at a modeling agency, observing they had the same love and passion for music both girls decided to merge and formed group called “XTACY”.

THE GROUP
The group Xtacy enjoyed massive love from the media and constant airplay but it didn’t look like the group could stand the test of time as incompetent managerial issues led to the breakup of Xtacy leaving the girls on a quest for solo efforts in 2007.

After this split, Nene Johnson aka NEJ signed a management contract with NOW MUSIC where she successfully released an EP titled MY FACE. The EP had four songs and the hit single My face also had a colourful video to back it up. The EP had a very positive turnout..  Her contract with the management firm expired in late 2008 and she moved on to further explore the vast dynasty of the Nigerian Music Industry and Entertainment circle.

NEJ got back with the group XTACY in late 2008, as they were signed and brought back together by a UK based label, Kendi Records. They worked together for a while under the Kendi Records platform for a while, releasing some singles titled Dodo and E Go Beta which also had a beautiful video shot by Ace Director Clarence Peters. The video didn’t only get limitless airplay but also got a nomination at the 2010 NMVA in the Best Use of Costume category. The sexy duo, XTACY, eventually and finally parted ways amicably in March 2011.

PASSIONATE LADY
Nene Johnson, a very passionate and strong willed individual does not relent as she rebrands as a Solo Act, puts the past behind her and carves a totally new identity for herself. She adopts the stage name NEJ, which is an acronym for “Nene Johnson”. With originality in her unquestionable talent, a very distinctive voice, strong personality and a unique style of her own, she’s in a world of her own. Simply put NEJ‘s here to leave her footprints in the sands of history.

The brand new NEJ releases 'LIGALI' her first single in April 2012. NEJ featured Jhybo the Rapper, aka Run There Mouth Crooner on her song, LIGALI which was also produced by the exceptionally talented Mcvance. The inspiration behind this song is “LOVE“. It’s about a young lady who’s bold enough to express her love for a guy she is crazy about and the word “Ligali” is a slang used to express a happy feeling like the chorus says: “Na U Dey Make Me Ligali, Afurum Gi Nanya Dim Oma…” meaning “you gladen my heart, you bring me joy, you drive me crazy, you make me happy, I love u my fine husband…”, and then JHYBO jumps on it to spice it up with a blend of Yoruba and Ibo rap. Ligali is basically a love song for the brave hearts with a blend of ibo representing the Eastern part of Nigeria where she hails from and a blend of Yoruba from Jhybo thereby cutting across to the west as well.

NEJ dropped her 2nd single 'TONITE' in october 2012, a sequel to her debut single 'LIGALI'. The Song 'Tonite' is a smoky hot, groovy tune which gives us a feel of the sassy and free spirited side of the sultry & beautiful songstress..
With this latest single of hers, NEJ expresses the beauty, fun & craziness of the night life & how she's letting her hair down & allowing the rhythm of the music take control of her. There's a line in the hook which says ''Nwanne Biko, Chelu Kam Joli' meaning, ''HOLD IT, I WANNA HAVE FUN'' & that's basically what the song Tonite's about.

The official video for her second single TONIGHT was released on the Internet an TV Houses in January 23rd, 2013.. The response has been massively encouraging. The downloads of the video has been so massive and the ratings and comments are totally inspiring. 

The gorgeous and super talented diva NEJ is definitely set to live her mark on the world and make an impact in her generation, you should follow her lead and allow her rock your world as she takes you on the ride of your life..
