Les Nubians, the self-proclaimed Afropean sisters, Hélène and Célia Faussart, came into the public eye in 1999, when their U.S. debut, Princesses Nubiennes, became the most successful French-language album in more than a decade of Billboard Charts.
After that, the two sisters traveled the world, soaking up the sounds of reggae, afro-beat and electronica, allowing each to influence their own music.
