Tiểu sử
Khởi đầu & ảnh hưởng
Furtado là thế hệ người Bồ Đào Nha–Canada đầu tiên, sinh ra trong một gia đình lao động có ba người con ở Azores. Tên của cô được đặt theo tên của một huấn luyện viên thể dục người Liên Xô, Nellie Kim.

Cha mẹ của Furtado di cư từ Bồ Đào Nha sang Canada vào cuối thập niên 1960[3]. Mới đây cô tuyên bố sẽ về thăm nơi chôn nhau cắt rốn, đảo Azores. Cô hy vọng sẽ trải nghiệm được nền văn hoá của đất nước này cũng như học tiếng Bồ Đào Nha để mở mang đầu óc. Điều này ảnh hưởng mạnh mẽ đến phong cách nghệ thuật của cô, nhất là khi cô thích thú kết hợp âm nhạc của các nền văn hoá khác nhau vào thể loại nhạc của mình. Bằng chứng rõ ràng là khả năng đa ngôn ngữ của cô, cô có thể nói tiếng Anh, Bồ Đào Nha, Tây Ban Nha và tiếng Ấn Độ. Furtado luôn biết ơn cha mẹ của mình vì cô thừa hưởng ở họ một tình yêu công việc. Cô đã từng trải qua 8 mùa hè làm việc như một phục vụ phòng với mẹ, người đã từng là quản gia ở Victoria[4]. Cô khẳng định rằng xuất thân từ tầng lớp lao động đã hình thành nên tính cách của cô theo chiều hướng tích cực[1][5].

Lần đầu ca hát của Furtado là khi cô lên 4, trình diễn cùng mẹ tại lễ nhà thờ vào ngày quốc khánh của Bồ Đào Nha. Cô bắt đầu chơi nhạc cụ ở tuổi lên 9, học kèn Trombon, đàn guitar Hawaii và sau đó là đàn guitar và keyboard. Năm lên 12, cô bắt đầu viết các ca khúc và nằm trong một ban nhạc Bồ Đào Nha.

Trong những năm đầu, Furtado theo rất nhiều thể loại nhạc đặc biệt là R&B, hip hop, alternative rock, alternative hip hop, trip hop... và một loạt các thể loại khác. Cô chịu ảnh hưởng của Mariah Carey, Oasis, U2...

Âm nhạc của Furtado cũng chịu ảnh hưởng của nơi cô sinh sống, Toronto, nơi mà cô gọi là "thành phố đa văn hoá nhất trên thế giới" và là nơi cô có thể thể hiện phong cách đa văn hoá của mình. Lớn lên tại Canada và đã trải nghiệm đủ sự đa dạng trong văn hoá của thành phố này. Cô nói rằng cô không phải đợi đến khi cuộc cách mạng Internet xâm chiếm mới có thể biết đến thế giới âm nhạc, cô bắt đầu nghe nhạc khi cô 15 tuổi và tiếp tục khám phá các thể loại âm nhạc mới. Đến năm 2006, cả thế giới đã được dịp chứng kiến khả năng cảm thụ âm nhạc đa dạng của Furtado.

Những nghệ sĩ đầu tiên mà Furtado có mối quan hệ là các nhạc sĩ thể loại rap và DJ.

Trong chuyến viếng thăm tới Toronto khi đó cô lên lớp 12, cô gặp Tallis Newkirk, một thành viên của nhóm nhạc hip hop Plains of Fascination. Cô dành thời gian còn lại của mùa hè năm đó ở Bồ Đào Nha để mở mang đầu óc trong cách trình diễn nhạc native rock và cô quay trở lại British Columbia. Sau khi tốt nghiệp trường cấp 2 Mount Douglas năm 1996, cô chuyển đến Toronto, nơi cô cùng với Newkirk thành lập nền song ca có tên gọi Nelstar năm 1997.


Whoa, Nelly!
Nelly Furtado tiếp tục hợp tác với Eaton và West, sản xuất album đầu tay Whoa, Nelly!, ra mắt vào tháng 10 năm 2000. Album đã đạt được thành công trên toàn cầu nhờ ba ca khúc: "I’m Like a Bird", "Turn off the Light" và "… On the Radio (Remember the Days)". Album nhận được 4 đề cử giải Grammy năm 2002, còn ca khúc đầu tiên của cô giành giải "Nữ ca sĩ hát Pop xuất sắc nhất". Hơn thế nữa, cô còn khẳng định được sự kết hợp sáng tạo giữa nhiều thể loại nhạc và âm thanh.


Folklore
Trước khi cho ra đời album thứ hai Folklore, Furtado sinh đứa con đầu lòng, Nevis. Tên của album được lấy cảm hứng từ cuộc di cư của cha mẹ cô tới Canada, cô nói: "Khi tôi xem lại những bức ảnh cũ, những bức hình ngôi nhà mới, chiếc ô tô mới bóng loáng của họ và những kỉ niệm khi di cư tới miền đất mới, Bắc Mỹ này, tôi cảm nhận được tính chất dân gian trong mạch máu".


Loose

Album Loose (2006)Album thứ ba của Nelly Furtado, Loose ra mắt vào tháng 6 năm 2006. Đây là album thành công nhất trong sự nghiệp ca hát của cô khi nó đứng đầu các bảng xếp hạng tại các quốc gia như Mỹ, Canada với các ca khúc "Promiscuous", "Maneater", "Say It Right", "All Good Things (Come To An End)". Album này nhận được nhiều nhận xét tích cực từ phía khán giả và các chuyên gia.

Tháng 6 năm 2006, trong một cuộc phỏng vấn với tạp chí Genre, khi được hỏi liệu cô có "bao giờ cảm thấy mình là một phụ nữ hấp dẫn" Furtado trả lời: "Tất nhiên. Phụ nữ lúc nào cũng xinh đẹp và quyến rũ".

English
Nelly Kim Furtado (born December 2, 1978) is a portuguese-canadian singer-songwriter, record producer, and actress. She has sold over 18 million albums worldwide, and currently resides in Toronto. Furtado grew up in Victoria, BC, Canada.

Furtado came to fame in 2000 with the release of her debut album Whoa, Nelly!, which featured her breakthrough Grammy Award-winning single "I'm Like a Bird". After becoming a mother and releasing the less commercially successful Folklore (2003), she returned to prominence in 2006 with the release of Loose and its hit singles "Promiscuous", "Maneater", "All Good Things (Come to an End)" and "Say It Right".

Furtado is known for experimenting with different instruments, sounds, genres, vocal styles, and languages. This diversity has been influenced by her wide-ranging musical taste and her interest in different cultures.

Early life
Furtado was born December 2, 1978, in the Canadian city of Victoria, British Columbia, to Portuguese parents, Maria Manuela and António José Furtado, both immigrants from the Portuguese Azores archipelago. Her parents were born on São Miguel Island and immigrated to Canada in the late 1960s.[1] Furtado has a strong connection with Portuguese culture. At age four she began performing and singing in Portuguese.[1] She was named after Soviet gymnast Nellie Kim.[2] Raised in a Roman Catholic home, Furtado first sang at the age of four when she performed a duet with her mother at a church on Portugal Day. Although remaining unclear about her religious beliefs, she still affirms a belief in God, the Ten Commandments, and in avoiding the Seven Sins.[2][3] She began playing instruments at the age of nine, learning the trombone, ukulele, and, in later years, the guitar and keyboards. At the age of 12, she began writing songs,[2] and as a teenager, she performed in a Portuguese marching band.[1] Furtado has acknowledged her family as the source of her strong work ethic; she spent eight summers working as a chambermaid with her mother, who was a housekeeper in Victoria.[4] She has stated that coming from a working class background has shaped her identity in a positive way.[2][5]


Musical career
The first musicians Furtado interacted with were underground rappers and DJs.[6] During a visit to Toronto the summer after eleventh grade, Furtado met Tallis Newkirk, member of the hip hop group Plains of Fascination. She contributed vocals to their 1996 album, Join the Ranks, on the track "Waitin' 4 the Streets".[7] After graduating from Mount Douglas Secondary School in 1996, she moved to Toronto. The following year, she formed Nelstar, a trip hop duo with Newkirk. Ultimately, Furtado felt the trip-hop style of the duo was "too segregated" and believed it did not represent her personality or allow her to showcase her vocal ability.[7] She left the group and planned to move back home.

Before moving, however, she performed at the 1997 Honey Jam, an "all-female urban" talent show.[7][8] Her performance attracted the attention of The Philosopher Kings singer Gerald Eaton (aka Jarvis Church), who then approached her to write with him. He and fellow Kings member Brian West helped Furtado produce a demo. She left Toronto, but returned again to record more material with Eaton and West. The material recorded during these sessions led to her 1999 record deal with DreamWorks Records, where she was signed by A&R executive Beth Halper, partner of Garbage drummer and record producer Butch Vig.[9] Furtado's first single, "Party's Just Begun (Again)", was released that year on the Brokedown Palace: Music from the Original Motion Picture Soundtrack.


2000–2002: Whoa, Nelly!
Furtado continued the collaboration with Eaton and West, who co-produced her debut album, Whoa, Nelly!, which was released in October 2000.

Following the release of the album, Furtado headlined the "Burn in the Spotlight Tour" and also appeared on Moby's Area:One tour.

The album was an international success, supported by three international singles: "I'm like a Bird", "Turn off the Light", and "...On the Radio (Remember the Days)". It received four Grammy Award nominations in 2002, and her debut single won for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance. Furtado's work was also critically acclaimed for her innovative mixture of various genres and sounds. Slant Magazine called the album "a delightful and refreshing antidote to the army of 'pop princesses' and rap-metal bands that had taken over popular music at the turn of the millennium".[10]

The sound of the album was strongly influenced by musicians who had traversed cultures and "the challenge of making heartfelt, emotional music that's upbeat and hopeful".[11] According to Maclean's magazine, Whoa, Nelly! had sold five million copies worldwide as of August 2006.[12]

The song "Scared of You" has portions of the song in Portuguese, while "Onde Estás" is entirely in Portuguese, reflecting Furtado's Portuguese heritage. The International Release of "Whoa Nelly" featured fellow Canadian Esthero on the song titled "I Feel You".

In 2002, Furtado appeared on the song "Thin Line", on underground hip hop group Jurassic 5's album Power in Numbers.[13] The same year, Furtado provided her vocals to the Paul Oakenfold's song "The Harder They Come" from the album "Bunkka" and also made the song "These words are my own". She also had a collaboration with Colombian artist Juanes, in the song "Fotografia" where she showed her diversity of yet another language.


2003–2005: Folklore
Furtado's second album, Folklore, was released in November 2003. The final track on the album, "Childhood Dreams", was dedicated to her daughter, Nevis. The album includes the single "Força" (meaning "strength" or "carry on" in Portuguese), the official anthem of the 2004 European Football Championship. Furtado performed this song in Lisbon at the championship's final, in which the Portugal national team played.[14] The lead single is "Powerless (Say What You Want)" and the second single is the ballad "Try". The album was not as successful as her debut, partly due to the album's less "poppy" sound,[15] as well as underpromotion from her label DreamWorks Records. DreamWorks had just been sold to Universal Music Group. In 2005, DreamWorks Records, along with many of its artists including Furtado, was absorbed into Geffen Records.

"Powerless (Say What You Want)" was later remixed, featuring Colombian rocker Juanes, who had previously worked with Furtado on his track "Fotografía" ("Photograph"). The two would collaborate again on "Te Busqué" ("I Found You"), a single from Furtado's 2006 album Loose.[16]


2006–2008: Loose
Furtado's third album, Loose, was released in June 2006. She named it after the spontaneous, creative decisions she made while creating the album.[17][18] Some have labeled her a "sellout" for seemingly abandoning her folk and rock roots in favour of hip hop and R&B, while others have accused her of attempting to "sex up" her music and appearance to sell more records.[19][20] In this album, primarily produced by Timbaland, Furtado experiments with sounds from R&B, hip hop, and 1980s music.[21] Furtado herself describes the album's sound as punk-hop, described as "modern, poppy, spooky" and as having "a mysterious, after-midnight vibe... extremely visceral".[17] She attributed the youthful sound of the album to the presence of her two-year-old daughter.[21] The album received generally positive reviews from critics,[22] with some citing the "revitalising" effect of Timbaland on Furtado's music,[23][24] and others calling it "slick, smart and surprising".[25]


Nelly performing at Rock am Ring in 2006Loose has become the most successful album of Furtado's career so far, as it reached number one not only in Canada and the United States, but also several countries worldwide. The album produced her first number-one hit in the United States, "Promiscuous", as well as her first number-one hit in the United Kingdom, "Maneater". The single "Say It Right" eventually became Furtado's most successful song worldwide, due to its huge success in Europe and in the United States, where it became her second number-one hit. "All Good Things (Come to an End)" became her most successful song in Europe, topping single charts in numerous countries there.

On February 16, 2007, Furtado embarked on the "Get Loose Tour". She returned in March 2007 to her hometown of Victoria to perform a concert at the Save-On Foods Memorial Centre. In honour of her visit, local leaders officially proclaimed March 21, 2007, the first day of spring, as Nelly Furtado Day.[26] After the tour, she released her first live DVD/CD named Loose the Concert.[27] On April 1, 2007, Furtado was a performer at and host of the 2007 Juno Awards in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. She won all five awards for which she was nominated, including Album of the Year and Single of the Year. She also appeared on stage at the Concert for Diana at Wembley Stadium in London on July 1, 2007, where she performed "Say It Right", "Maneater", and "I'm like a Bird".

In 2007, Furtado and Justin Timberlake were featured on Timbaland's single "Give It to Me",[28] which became her third number-one single in the U.S. and second in the UK. In late 2008, Furtado collaborated with James Morrison on a song called "Broken Strings" for his album "Songs for You, Truths for Me". The single was released on December 8[29] and peaked at #2 on the UK Singles Chart in early January.

In 2007, Furtado leaked plans to Flare regarding a song she was set to duet for Kylie Minogue's return. However, the song was not featured on her album X but Minogue says the aforementioned song "is still outstanding" and has plans to pursue it. She said "I am looking forward to getting in the studio and doing it because I know Nelly and I would have a great time together".[30]


2009-present: Mi Plan and Fifth Studio album
On December 31, 2008 El Diario La Prensa posted an article that Furtado is planning on recording songs in English and Spanish for her upcoming album and that it is "expected to launch on September 15, 2009.[31]

In early March, a song called "Gotta Know" leaked in the internet and was said to be Nelly's. As response, on March 4, 2009, Furtado stated on her MySpace blog that the song is not hers and that she is recording two new albums: one in Spanish, and the other in Portuguese.[33] According to Nelly Furtado via the Perez Hilton blog, the Spanish album will be titled Mi Plan and the first single titled "Manos Al Aire" (in Spanish, meaning "Hands Up").[34] The album will have twelve new songs, all in spanish, as stated by Nelly in a message left in her official website [35] The second single "Más" was released on July 21, as it was announced on Nelly's official myspace.

In a recent video Nelly said "I’m also writing an English album," she says "Timbaland and I hooked up in the studio about three months ago and we wrote 20 songs in two days. It was really inspired. I think maybe some of that material will be on my English album."


Record Label
She has formed her own record label, Nelstar, in conjunction with Canadian independent label group Last Gang Labels. The first act signed to Nelstar is Fritz Helder & the Phantoms.[39] Furtado released her first Spanish single 'Manos Al Aire' on the new label.[40]


Music influences
During her pre-teenage to teenage years, Furtado embraced many musical genres, listening heavily to mainstream R&B, hip hop, alternative hip hop, drum and bass, trip hop, world music (including Portuguese fado, Brazilian bossa nova and Indian music), and a variety of others.[2] Her influences have included Jeff Buckley, Portishead, Janet Jackson, Oasis, Caetano Veloso, Esthero, Amalia Rodrigues, Björk, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Cornershop, TLC, Mariah Carey, Mary J. Blige, Digable Planets, De La Soul, Radiohead, Kylie Minogue, Madonna, Shakira, The Smashing Pumpkins, The Verve, U2, Enya and Beck.[2][9]

Furtado's music has also been influenced by her current residence, Toronto, which she calls "the most multicultural city in the entire world" and a place where she "can be any culture". Regarding Toronto's cultural diversity, she has said that she did not have to wait for the Internet revolution to learn about world music; she began listening to it at the age of five and continues to discover new genres.

“ I always know there's a new genre left to discover. For me, it's like a metaphor for life. I feel like if you can get down with any style of music, you can get down with any style of person. So it's fun for me—I get to expose my fans to different vibes and they, in turn, open their minds too. I'm always undergoing mind-opening. ”


Personal life
On September 20, 2003, in Toronto, Furtado gave birth to a daughter, Nevis, whose father is Jasper Gahunia [AKA DJ Lil' Jazz, Canadian DMC Champion 1998]. Furtado and Gahunia, who had been good friends for several years, remained together for four years until their breakup in 2005. Furtado told Blender magazine that they continue to be good friends and jointly share responsibility of raising Nevis.[41]

In June 2006, in an interview with Genre magazine, when asked if she had "ever felt an attraction to women", Furtado replied "Absolutely. Women are beautiful and sexy".[42] Some considered this an announcement of bisexuality,[43] but in August 2006, she stated that she was "straight, but very open-minded".[44] In November 2006, Furtado revealed that she once turned down US$ 500,000 to pose fully-clothed in Playboy.[45]
