“My Tribute EP, which has now evolved into a tribute ALBUM because I have soooo much to say, is almost done.”

Expressing the personal significance of the album, Nadia emphasized that it is a tool for her own healing. It is also a heartfelt letter to the late AKA.

.She stated, “I’m so grateful I have music to express myself; this album is honestly not for you, it’s for me, in my road to healing (whatever that looks like), my letter to him. This is powerful, this is spiritual. THANK YOU to everyone who just gets it! Supported it, and showed up! I wish I could drop this tomorrow.”

Despite having lost her man 10 months ago, Nadia has stayed true to her commitment to him. Recently, she opened up about getting a panic attack because of their sentimental necklace.
