Nelly Furtado
About Nelly Furtado
Young singer-songwriter Nelly Furtado, who hails from Victoria, BC, emerged seemingly from out of nowhere with her debut album WHOA NELLY in 2000, sporting an eclectic, genre-defying sound and winsome tone. Furtado's hugely popular work incorporates pop hooks, hip-hop derived rhythms, R&B production touches, and some left-field sonic weirdness. Her songs combine a modern, urban-oriented approach with occasional exotic rhythmic accents indicative of her Portugese roots. Despite her pan-stylistic vision and photogenic looks, one of the most striking facets of Furtado's music is her unusual lyrics, which employ off-kilter imagery and a quirky sense of language not commonly heard on Top 40 radio.
