My Fairy Tales is the fifth album by singer Nneka, released on March 2, 2015.[1] It was her first independent release on her own label Bushqueen Music.[2] According to Nneka, the release is "a project as opposed to a whole album".[3] Musically there are "reggae influences as well as Afrobeats and hi-life. Lyrically, it's conscious, it's empowering and it's motivating; discussing political issues, as well as issues that affect us on a day-to-day basis".[3]
