About
Singer-songwriter NelliYah shines the light of Yah’s word through smooth, soulful sounds that uplift your spirit!
NelliYah’s music is set-apart kingdom music, music that esteems our Heavenly Father! Her music is best described as an infusion of gospel, R&B, neo-soul, and jazz. “Yahusha is my love song, I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for Him.” Says NelliYah. When asked why she uses the names Yahuah and Yahusha, NelliYah says, “I’m excited to answer that because I’ve learned in Hebrew culture names are very important. They have meaning that embodies your unique character trait. Yahusha came in his father’s name (John 5:43), and his father’s name is Yahuah. Yahusha means Yah’s salvation, so every time we call his name, we are calling out to our savior, who is our deliverer in every sense of the word. Once I received an understanding of that, I decided to call (who the world knows as Jesus) by his Hebrew name. My mission is not only to shine a light on his name but to encourage, inspire, and uplift while giving esteem to our creator through song. I pray the music Yah has given me blesses all who hear it and that it draws them closer to our creator.”
Let the word of Mashiach dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to Yahuah. Colossians 3:16
