Sky

Before hitting the charts, the girls from Nina Sky worked as DJs and started developing their own sound under the guidance of two musical producers, Elijah Wells and Lionel Bermingham, known as the Jettsonz. Through this connection, Nina Sky came to work on their first single Move Ya Body that combined Caribbean rhythms with some R&B beats. The demo version of the song was very much to the liking of a division president from Universal Records, and things started to go smoothly for Nina Sky.

Move Ya Body was the single that opened many doors for Nina Sky but they had to move further on with their musical career. It was time to focus on music promotion, and they started working hard in this direction particularly, with their efforts reflected in the increased response to reggaeton music on both sides of the Atlantic. At the end of 2007, Nina Sky finished their collaboration with Universal Records and went for J Records, with an album that is still under work. In the meantime the twins put together all sorts of remixes of other very popular songs like J. Holiday’s Bed or Cassidy’s My Drink n My 2 Steps.

Nina Sky’s songs address pretty varied topics from love themes and friendship to loss and bitter stuff of an emotional nature. On the other hand the beat of their music is vivid with serious R&B tonalities that don’t pass unnoticed on the dance floor. Nina Sky even participated to the writing of the famous Betty Wright’s song You Deserve for which they also contributed as guest vocalists. With only two albums, lots of remixes and collaborations, there are many other things to expect from Nina Sky. Will there be a reorientation in style or will they follow the same beat? It remains to see.
