Multi-cultural sensibilities come naturally to Les Nubians. Born to a French father and Cameroonian mother, Helene and Celia Faussart learned how to sing at a young age. Their music offers a jazzy, sophisticated style of R&B that combines French lyrics with the influence of Sade, Soul II Soul, hip-hop, and African pop. Their highly successful album, "Princesses Nubiennes" was a successful amalgam of the music they'd experienced during their life travels, combining their African roots with jazzy nuances, funky rhythms and a hint of British soul, all delivered in their uniquely elegant French style. They have also worked with Talib Kw,eli, Black Eyed Peas and fellow Cameroonian Manu Dibango.
