And rightly so. Everyone felt dazed after watching the music video for\u00a0<i>Nah It Ain&#8217;t The Same<\/i> (2021) by the London singer. Hidden behind the extravagant look that only British people know how to create, <strong>Greentea Peng<\/strong> directs her jaded gaze towards the camera, takes a silver teapot and pours a trickle of steaming water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">No time to understand what she is thinking about, as we plunge into the embers of the joint she slips between her lips. Then, we land on the black and white landscape of a postcard, a bowl of scarlet pomegranates, a deserted street. The climax of this music portfolio is a jazz club, where the young woman transforms her uninhibited soul music into unexpected Jamaican ska sounds. Her mantra hits us where it hurts: &#8220;<i>It&#8217;s so hard to be human<\/i>.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Aria Wells doesn&#8217;t even know how many tattoos\u00a0<\/b>cover her body. About fifty? A hundred? At the other end of the line, the young woman sometimes repeats our questions, as if to give herself time to think, punctuating her answers with a serious laugh or a completely rhetorical &#8220;<em>You know what I mean?<\/em>&#8221; We learn that she was born and raised in Bermondsey, South London. She quickly opted for a nomadic lifestyle, moving between regions and schools, sometimes leaving the UK capital for Hastings or Mexico City. This wide range of locations, settings and people forged her character. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Greentea Peng - Nah It Ain&amp;apos;t The Same (Official Video)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" data-cookieconsent=\"statistics, marketing\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/5CzNP_sKWK4?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><div class=\"cookieconsent-optout-statistics cookieconsent-optout-marketing\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Greentea Peng \u2014 <em>Nah It Ain&#8217;t The Same<\/em> (2021).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">At the crossroads of music genres<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Little by little, the slightly zany teenage party girl cooled down as if the groove she now handles to perfection completed her quest for tranquility. As if the Mayan greetings she embeds in the track<strong>\u00a0<i>Hu Man<\/i><\/strong>\u00a0(2020), satisfied her vital need to explore. In both life and music, <strong>Aria Wells <\/strong>runs away from anguish and anger. She behaves like a nightclub face checker with everyone she meets. Between bursts of laughter on the phone, her motto turns into a piece of advice\u2026 &#8220;<em>Master the energies you bring into your life<\/em>,&#8221; she says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is under the stage name <strong>Greentea Peng <\/strong>\u2014 meaning &#8220;delicious green tea&#8221; \u2014 that she expresses herself best. Her father was an actor and passed down his taste for music to her, from the <strong>Fugees<\/strong> to the fabulous musicals in London theatres. But these days, the young woman no longer wanders from town to town. Instead, she travels without leaving England, through music, along the roads leading to R&#8217;n&#8217;B, ska, reggae, dub, neo soul, jazz and bossa nova. &#8220;<i>I don&#8217;t think my music is unique,<\/i> <i>but I refuse to be locked in a box. To escape my comfort zone, I try to be brave&#8230; and to improvise<\/i>,&#8221; the singer explains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sensi\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-cookieconsent=\"statistics, marketing\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XKFuynbJRsk?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><div class=\"cookieconsent-optout-statistics cookieconsent-optout-marketing\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Greentea Peng \u2014 <em>Sensi<\/em> (2018).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Sharp lyrics and experimental sounds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On her debut EP<b>\u00a0<i>Sensi<\/i>,<\/b> released in 2018, she settled for ragamuffin phrasing. In her contemporary soul productions, <strong>Greentea Peng<\/strong> tries to avoid the overly obvious harmonies and classical patterns that flood the music industry. Indeed, the 31-year-old artist can safely rely on her own talent, looks and surely the coolest face on the R&#8217;n&#8217;B scene&#8230;. It&#8217;s hard to miss this laid-back personality who seems to succeed in everything she does with an insolent ease and nonchalance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While her vocals evaporate into the pads and synths \u2014 those polyphonic and imprecise background ambiences \u2014 <strong>Greentea Peng<\/strong> still seems blas\u00e9. With a thousand rings on her fingers, she reminds us that she masters both her image and her music. For her first album, <em>Man Made<\/em>\u00a0(2021), she collaborated with her favourite producer and close collaborator <strong>Earbuds<\/strong> once again. The latter had already worked with rapper <strong>Slowthai<\/strong>. Greentea Peng has taken risks with a project she describes as &#8220;<em>experimental<\/em>&#8220;, like the track\u00a0<i><strong>Nah It Ain&#8217;t The Same<\/strong><\/i> where she mixes a double bass riff with old-school minimalist drums.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Greentea Peng - One Foot\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" data-cookieconsent=\"statistics, marketing\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/IBDdK3tQG58?list=PLEpjZ6a3i26fGdmjQ7oZD9h5uk8cZkNfO\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><div class=\"cookieconsent-optout-statistics cookieconsent-optout-marketing\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Greentea Peng \u2014 <em>One Foot <\/em>(2025).<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Although a distinctly summer warmth<\/b> emanates from most of her compositions, she is also drawn to melancholia in her lyrics. &#8220;<i>Of course, it is easier to talk about sadness,&#8221;\u00a0<\/i>she shares.<i>\u00a0<\/i>\u201c<i>The vibrations of grief occur when you&#8217;re at the bottom of the hole.
