Nia Smith gives fan a suprise feature on remix of ‘Personal’
British Musician Nia Smith has blessed fans with a new version of her huge new single ‘Personal’, featuring an artist who needs no introduction, Popcaan. Only released a month ago, “Personal”, has amassed over a million streams. Nia has also seen her monthly listeners jump to 400k+ on Spotify, a huge achievement with only 2 singles released.
Produced by Grammy-award-winner Jimmy Napes & Dom Valentino, and written with Ed Thomas, Nia elaborates what working with Popcaan was like; “First feature is thee popcaan?! The song already had that island essence so it was only right to get one of my fav jamaican artists on the remix. As soon as his verse came in I was like “yeahhhh this is it”. it’s a lifestyle momenttttt.”

With an easy and minimalist instrumental introduction, Nia’s impressive vocals take centre stage on ‘Personal’. Popcaan’s captivating verse & adlibs perfectly compliments the tone of the track. Truly embracing the energy of the song, Popcaan is the perfect addition to this searing anthem.
The incredible presence of her voice amplifies the message of the song, namely Nia standing up for herself and letting an unnamed man know what she thinks of him. Calm and powerful, the track also features a brand new video featuring Popcaan himself.
Shot in London, the visual takes places in the quintessential British home, featuring Nia’s friends and family. Bustling with life and activity, the video shows a party; with plating of food, children playing, Nia escaping to sit out of the window and of course the staple of any house party – dancing in the living room. Capturing a day in Nia’s life, this visual snapshot shows the community behind her.
‘Personal’ & its second iteration follow on from the release of Nia’s debut single ‘Give Up The Fear’; an earnest and heartfelt offering which received huge support from the likes of NME, Line Of Best Fit, The Times, Wonderland, British Vogue, Rolling Stone and more.
Powerful and technically impressive, there is a tender vulnerability threaded through her storytelling and although she may just be getting started, Nia’s songs already feel accomplished and full of heart. Further honing her live craft, Nia performed at Mahalia Presents at the Jazz Cafe, supported Pip Millett at Somerset House & played before SZA as BST, Hyde Park.
