about
Before reaching over a million followers on Tik Tok for her personality, before being chosen to be on Adam Levine’s team on The Voice for her performance, before millions viewed her among the Top 10 on American Idol, both taking place as a teenager, Adanna Duru recognized the beauty in her voice before she could read. Raised in Orange County, California, Adanna remembers the struggle of identity and not feeling confident outside of her ability to sing simply because she was the only Nigerian girl. Whether it was the curiosity of her classmates about her skin complexion, the need to touch her hair, or the wonder on their faces about the dark lines on the palms of her hands, Adanna was made to feel outside of the norm. On her forthcoming projects, Adanna Duru showcases her vocal talent, her musical influences, her rich heritage, and her confidence in the content of her character. Accentuating her growth as an artist beyond the content she provides on social media, Adanna’s vocal presence is as captivating as her vibrant personality. Each song is an homage to her musical influences and shows the range of her strengths as a singer and her awareness of how she wants music to make her feel. As a self-proclaimed R&B/ Afrobeat/ Pop artist, this definition of her sound is a testament to her dynamic character and recognition of all she represents…for herself.
