FEATURED ARTIST
Afro-fusion artist. Soft life. Global voltage.
NOVA Rei is a Nigerian Afro-fusion artist and lyricist building a sound around softness, confidence, emotional honesty and movement. Blending Afrobeats, alt-pop, dancehall textures and cinematic storytelling, she creates music that feels intimate but globally ready — songs for late nights, self-discovery, romance, boundaries and becoming.
Developed through Martial Records' Africa-to-world artist venture system, NOVA Rei represents a new generation of African female artists: intentional, stylish, emotionally aware and commercially fearless. Her world combines music, fashion, visual identity, fan connection and performance discipline into one evolving artist brand.
