Koncertní debutový a klasický recitál Niny Simone se konal , když měla Nina pouhých 12 let. Štědře obdarována talentem nikoho nenechala na pochybách, že se zrodila velká umělkyně. Zpěvačka, pianistka, skladatelka ...a bojovnice za občanská práva. V roce 1958 Nina natočila své první studiové album pro Bethlehem Records, následovaly nahrávací společnosti Colpix , Philips, RCA Victor a další. Nina se proslavila již záhy bezpočtem hitů , jmenujme kupříkladu : "Ain't Got No – I Got Life","Mississippi Goddam", coververzi Bee Gees "To Love Somebody", "To Be Young, Gifted And Black".
