The soulful groove stylings of Nadirah Shakoor will be on display at Soulgasm, Honolulu’s premiere live house and soul monthly Friday night.
The two-time Grammy nominated artist is best known as the lead singer for ’90s hip-hop group Arrested Development. Shakoor was also a part of Janet Jackson’s Rhythm Nation tour in 1992 and has also worked with megastars like Madonna, Al Jarreau and Quincy Jones among others.
After Arrested Development disbanded in 1995, Spearhead, Yanni and Jimmy Buffett approached the singer songwriter to join their respective live shows. She took Buffett’s offer and has been touring with Mr. Margaritaville and the Coral Reefer Band ever since.
On the solo tip, the talented songstress has four albums to her credit and established herself as a successful voice in the house music world. Her current album is a project honoring Buffett entitled Nod to the Storyteller.
