"Wait Up" haunts the listener. Neffy's rich tones blend so well and carry in them a knowing sense of an interiority that knows the pain of displacement. Much love to her--I would love to interview her!
A voice that reaches into your soul, drives through pain and uncertainty, and then lifts you out of the fog to a newfound sense of optimism. Simply stated accompaniment of the acoustic guitar needing nothing more and nothing less to express all that needs to be said. Perfect!
Stunning. Your voice. The lyrics. Just stunning. Congratulations beautiful. You deserve this and more. Thank you for sharing your lovely soul and your talent with the world. ♥️
why because you never heard Adelle before? Dude...this is a pathetic rip off attempt to ride on the coat tails of a trademarked voice and make some money or fame. LAME! Chick BLOWZ
Congratulations on the Tiny Desk win! You have an amazing voice. It’s crazy that you’ve been submitting for years but I would have missed this incredible talent if not for the win. I hope to hear a lot more from you.
Mecca, Your song brings tears to my eyes each time I listen to it. You have a great talent and I am glad NPR recognized it. Congratulations and I hope to hear more from you!
@@VanGoWanderlust But you didn't have the effing BALLS to call out this scammy rip - off of Adele for what it is right? LOSER! This artist blows...ripping off other artists riding on coat tails...Oh but shes AMAZING because she's black right? ridiculous
you've listened to this 1/2 dozen times because you kept saying to yourself...."What? Adele has a new song I haven't heard yet" You idiot! This is just a typical trend/fad following unimaginative SLANDEROUS rip off of a famous artist...in this case Adele!
@@stephenp1461 that's the beauty of laughing at the absurd and CONTRIVED....you laugh at it so hard you cry. that is when you know the comedy is TOPS! laugh at the poser! It might do you some good!
@@fucketaboutit mate are you okay? What a strange comment to make. Whether or not this is derivative of Adele doesn’t take away from the fact that to many it’s a wonderful performance. Even still, you can disagree and not spread vitriol the way you have. I sincerely hope you are not a troll and do not have this much hatred in your heart. Have a good day
Just thank you, there are those moments when you see, hear, feel real art and you know it in an instant. Its what I witnessed now. A pleasure to listen to and I hope you have years of creativity and joy from your art.
Heard a snippet of this on NPR and had to find it! There’s a transformational power in your voice that drew me in and now I want more! Congrats on the Tiny Desk Contest win and good luck-big things are coming for you, young lady!
Neefy, thank you so much for this song. I feel you have articulated with much grace and beauty, what so many of our souls long for. May we all remember our sacred place in nature and listening to the waters who know our names.
I could not stop listening, I couldn’t look away, and by the end my thoughts were silenced and my mind was clear. Thanks for sharing your artwork. You inspire me.
So beautiful. Her voice is reminiscent of the 80s and 90s women I loved so much. A little Des'ree, a little Sheryl Crow. Tracy Chapman "Fast Car" vibes for sure. The storytelling mixed with the haunting quality in her voice is just perfect. Sing on, lovely soul. Congrats on Tiny Desk!
Neffy , Your voice is unforgettably rich , soulful and haunting . One true thing. Thank you for the gift of your music . Congrats on the award which you so well deserve .
We’ll that was amazing. Congratulations Neffy! So we’ll deserved. You’ve got a new fan in me, for sure! What a gorgeous song. And obviously your talent is breathtaking. Bravo 🎉
This is so beautiful. Your rich tone and the way you tell a story are very unique and lovely. I wish I could understand the words a little better because the lyrics I do understand are very moving. Thank you for sharing your song with the world.
When I heard your song today on the All Songs podcast I thought to myself that you should win the Tiny Desk Contest. Your voice is unique and exceptional. Best of luck to you!
UNIQUE???? EXCEPTIONAL?????? Since when is totally ripping off another artists Schtick unique and exceptional? We already have ONE Adele.....how many fvcking more do we need? Moron!

I love this song the first time I heard I knew it could be interpreted in different ways, but my girlfriend blew my mind when she said she considered the river, me and the city her ex.blew my mind, could have totally different spin on it and that's what I love about this song it's for everybody
