Princess Nyah's UK funky crossover "Frontline" turned out to be a runaway anthem when she teamed up with Ill Blu back in 2008. In fact, we even selected it as one of our 20 Best UK Funky Tracks. Her sure-footed delivery and ability to switch between rapping and singing so quickly (and effortlessly) always grabs our attention.

On Nyahs' new track, "Business Lady", she teams up with Midlands producer TRC once more (following their recent collab on "Butterflies") for a hazy production that could just as easily have come from the LA beat scene—but her inimitable flow puts an undeniable UK stamp on the track. As for the subject of the song, we see Nyah railing against female stereotypes, particularly the adage "a woman's place is in the kitchen." As she explained to us via email: "My nan being a working woman all her life inspired me to always make sure I created a revenue stream for myself, hence 'thou shall get her own money.'"
