Neela is a multi-talented R&B-pop singer-songwriter, actor, and dancer. Her music bears raw honesty, marrying her soulful voice with sensuous indie-R&B musicality. Stemming from fierce, passionate artistry, Neela’s music explores the complexity of human emotions in the face of raw, sensual desire.
The singer-songwriter used to weigh 240 lbs. For most of her life, the artist has been scrutinized and bullied for her body size. Her body has gone through a transformation that left stretch marks and loose skin. These experiences created a lot of insecurities, leaving her to accept and love her story, body, and identity.
She shares, ‘When I entered the music industry, I tried to hide most of my story and fit a narrative that wasn’t true.’ The title track from my upcoming EP, “Exposed” is a song that exhibits her process of sharing insecurities, shame, and vulnerability. It also expresses the feeling of being loved by someone fully and how she’s learning to love herself in this journey. It’s raw, honest, and bare.
