Canadian Teen RnB / Pop Queen Neena Rose Is No "Mannequin"

Neena Rose continues her quick ascension among the ranks of home-grown pop-RnB royalty, releasing her new video for “Mannequin” — available now!

The first single off her forthcoming EP, 333, “Mannequin”s video stuns as a day-glow sight to be seen, the Ontario teen dream queen at the helm. The track has been dubbed “catchy” with an “amazing vocal performance” from the likes of We Sound, Eonity, PopFiltr, Maisonneuve, La City Music, hyacinthus, Mystix, West Coast Chill, and more, and received additional early applause from Newpop, Caltify MX, Nam Radio, The Urban Meltdown, KCC Live, Radio Norge Nord, Hip Hop Headquarters, Last Day Deaf, Talk About Pop, Lefuturewave, DiscoverNu, Banger of the Day, London’s OVERVIEWisontheradio, and more.

Music isn’t just a creative outlet or destined career for the Canadian singer/songwriter… It’s also — much like the video — a mesmerizing, kaleidoscopic experience that skyrockets beyond what the rest of us count as traditional receptions of sound.

“Songs are colourful for me,” she says of her highly unique and wildly fascinating multi-sensory perception of the senses, chromesthesia synesthesia. “Every song I hear or write has a very specific colour visual.”

Synesthetes make up just four per cent of the population and are eight times more likely to be artistically inclined, so it’s little wonder the 17-year old Hamilton, Ontario artist gravitated to the craft.

“I love it all, but writing lyrics is my favourite part of the process,” she muses, reflecting on previous toe dips into nu-country, emo rock, and lofty pop bops before finding her most authentic self in R&B. “It’s always been a thing I love to do. Any time I feel any type of way, I’m writing a song. If I’m happy, I’m writing… If I’m sad, I’m writing…

“And I’m always listening to new beats… Maybe I shouldn’t say this, but it’s not uncommon for me to go into the bathroom at school and listen to music. I’ll play 30 different backing tracks to flesh out what feels right and solidify the sound I’m looking for.”
