British born multi talented singer-songwriter from South London with a rich African Heritage (Nigeria, Malawi, Zimbabwe & SA) Natalie, 26, is already a force to be reckoned with in the music industry. She combines afrobeats, pop, r&b, soul and dancehall in a distinctive style with powerful natural vocal talent.
Natalie’s story began aged just 10 when she was signed to Syco Entertainment by Simon Cowell from the 2009 Britain's Got Talent semi-finals where she won third place alongside legends Susan Boyle and Diversity. Her incredible rendition of Alicia Keys’ “No One” has since amassed 150M+ views on YouTube. According to The Sun and Mirror her audition continues to trend as the fifth most streamed performance of BGT.
Natalie has since collaborated with many artists including Backroad Gee, Darkoo, Oxlade, Ramz and Sneakbo, while opening shows for Tion Wayne and BNXN.
Most recently, Natalie made a life-changing decision in 2024 to take down some of her old catalogue having reflected on her growing influence on especially young people through her lively TikTok and Instagram following. She decided to ensure her music is clean and uplifting with a positive message. This is in stark contrast to the industry norm and signals a fresh direction for Natalie, reflecting her strong Christian values.
