To me, a song is a song when you can sit in a room and just sing it from end to end. Neneh Cherry endroomsing Change image and share on social
Both my parents were working-class and had dreams of making the world a better place. It's pretty powerful, being able to reflect back their beliefs. Neneh Cherry backbeliefclass Change image and share on social
For me, making music is about my whole life. The basics, the components, simple things - family, living, just going to the market and getting new fruit and veg. That's what keeps my blood flowing. Neneh Cherry basicbloodcomponent Change image and share on social
I love collard greens and sweet potatoes. But like, traveling, I'm always just looking for that thing where you feel like there's love in the food. Like one of the best things, in Brazil it's feijoada. I was in Tobago in the winter, and I had the best roti I've ever had, with curry goat. Neneh Cherry brazilcollardcurry share on social
I think I've grown up in a mixed environment, and maybe a lot of the time I haven't really belonged anywhere in the way I've dreamt of belonging to, you know, living on the street and playing to all the kids on the street, growing up together. I suppose 'Raw Like Sushi' was a place where all of those things could come together. Neneh Cherry belongdreamenvironment share on social
I love Robyn, not just because we've worked together. I mean, that's why we've worked together - because I love her. Neneh Cherry haveloverobyn Change image and share on social
The race is your face. Obviously, I come from a mixed background. Who I am and how I look and being black. Neneh Cherry backgroundblackface Change image and share on social
I'm not an amazingly trained soul singer, so with me it's about feeling and energy and spontaneity - that's a really big part of who I am. Neneh Cherry amazinglybigenergy Change image and share on social

I think I've always been slightly addicted to not repeating myself. When you're doing something the first time around, it's often the best time. I think 'Blank Project' is about carrying on. Its that thing where you're making something because you have to, but you don't know how or why. Neneh Cherry addictblankcarry share on social
