Nii has been poached by US-based Native Entertainment Group, a subsidiary of KMBP Group of Companies and will be locally represented by Kosmopolitan PR and Syndicate. Native Entertainment Group (N.E.G) is based in Dallas, Texas and trebles as booking agents for top USA entertainers, corporate event organizers and talent managers – mainly bridging the gap of African entertainment to the world. The president, Kwadwo Asiama has promised the world an invasion by Nii. His outfit saw immense talent in the young man and has promised the world a new Nii. He also projected that in a couple of years, NII will be a consummate world known entertainer and his talents will be well channeled.

Nii says he is happy that the drama surrounding his career has come to a meaningful end. Moreover, his talent rather than his ‘issues’ will be enjoyed by Ghanaians and the world as a whole. He is currently working on his new songs under Native Entertainment and management is promising a complete album to be released by August, 2011. The album would reflect his new name, Nii Soul; and his music will be world class R&B and soul music with an African infusion.
