Niasony

Niasony Okomo (born Alexandrine Severine Niasony Okomo; 1973) is a Congolese singer, model, and dancer born in Republic of the Congo. Known for her smooth voice and message-based music, she currently lives and works in Germany.

She was born in Brazzaville in 1973 to Michael Okomo and Charlotte Nkounkolo and moved to Heiligenhaus, Germany, near Düsseldorf, in 1987. She has spoken of the culture shock she experienced with this move, finding a contrast between the bustle of Brazzaville and the small-town, often empty, streets of Heiligenhaus. As a teenager Niasony worked as a model, dancer and performance artist for various projects.
