Les Nubians is described as Afropean. The sisters, Helene and Celia, were born in France; the products of a French father and a Cameroonian mother. They spent most of their formative years in Chad, but returned to France where they entered the art and music scene at poetry slams and as back-up vocalists. Over the years, they have collaborated with many artists such as U2, Black Eyed Peas, and The Roots. I had the pleasure of listening to the lovely duo with Ashley and Julia after a sumptuous dinner at the Fatty Crab. Although R&B isn't my first choice of musical styling, I rather enjoyed Les Nubians. With their mix of French and English lyrics and subtle grooves, they have a sound that is pleasurable to the ears. I would imagine that their music appeals to a wide audience.
100 in 6 budget: $934
