[junkie-dropcap]W[/junkie-dropcap]atch how someone moves and it’ll tell you more about them than anything they can utter. How do you carry yourself when there’s little to no one watching? While we may value the ideals and perspectives one has. The term influencer has become quite saturated and on many fronts, perplexingly subjective. We choose who influences us. These all play into the game, we delineate the moves played on the grid. Yet we seldom consider the maneuvers made while the cameras are off. Who are you in reality? When it all adds up, there’s magic. Nkenge Brown plays for keeps and captures her truest self in every frame.
Coming from the most distinguished city in the world, it’s no secret, Brown is simply put, an anomaly. Her personality is as simpatico as perceived based on her social status updates. It’s quite refreshing getting the unfiltered, unadulterated scope of view. There are little reservations, Brown is delightfully and unapologetically herself. With a smile that will fill any room and a complexion richer than bdellium yet softer than angel hair. Her bold eyes capture you in an instant. As she serves fierce looks, unforgettable dance moves, and showcases her undisputed love for anime. Yes, anime. And not the “I dabble in this because its kicky right now” kinda love. A genuine adoration for the art and anything associated with it. Her anime centric TikToks will leave you in stitches.

While all these set her apart, it’s Nkenge’s attention to detail that truly makes her unique. Brown shoots a majority of her own photos and edits almost all of her material. Her pictures not only reflect her high-class taste, they showcase a golden side of NY. There’s a warmth to her color grading selection and edits, it’s as if her shots illustrate her internal emotions and warm sensibilities kin to the climate of the island her parents hail from. Jamaica.
“Step aside, there’s a professional at work”. Each shot contains a moment of inspiration, all neatly colonized within her imagination and expressed through the photos Brown takes. Her stylistic choices are second to none. She understands what works for her and has the gift of showcasing it elegantly. From Fashion, Travel, Makeup and skincare tutorials, TikTok skits, mild cosplay and more. Her gift is in expecting the higher esthetic standard and the apprehension that great photos bear far deeper meanings.
“I believe great visuals build great communities and I aim to be a leading resource that upholds that standard within the fashion, travel, and photography space.”
With a Bachelor’s Degree from The Fashion Institute of Technology with an emphasis on Advertising and Marketing, she also understands how to showcase content in this hyper-saturated digital age. With an ever-growing following, Brown comprehends clearly her brand and its identity. Putting on for all the women she represents. Dark-skinned, beautiful black women. Her name stemming from Ghanian decent, simply means “brilliant”. There is none other, an individual in every sense who knows her reach steps far outside of the camera frame. Good people will always be good people. We may all make sense of the rules, but it’s apparent, it’s Nkenge’s game. We’re all just playing in it.
