Les Nubians is a French musical duo made up of sisters Hélène and Célia Faussart. They first caught global attention with their 1998 debut album, Princesses Nubiennes, which blended neo-soul, jazz, hip-hop, and African rhythms with lyrics predominantly in French. What set Les Nubians apart was their unique sound and cultural blend—born in France to a French father and Cameroonian mother, the sisters grew up between Europe and Africa, which deeply influenced their music's global fusion and socially conscious themes.
Over the years, Les Nubians have continued to release genre-defying music, with albums like One Step Forward and NÜ REVOLUTION further showcasing their evolution as artists. They’ve collaborated with a wide range of musicians and earned critical acclaim, including a Grammy nomination. Known for their stylish visuals and empowering messages, Les Nubians remain influential voices in both the Francophone and global soul music scenes.
