Anisa is a Trinidadian-born, New York-based singer-songwriter who has boldly stepped outside the box of traditional gospel music. Drawing from real-life experiences, she creates music that resonates with people from all walks of life. Her mission goes beyond the church walls—she seeks to reach those both inside and especially outside of the church. Having experienced failure on many levels, Anisa connects deeply with everyday struggles and uses every opportunity to uplift and inspire both young and old. Her core message is simple yet powerful: “You are not your mistakes.”
In December 2014, Anisa released her debut single, “Your Love”, a song designed to empower listeners to trust in the unwavering love of God. Anisa says, “If anyone can pick you up, clean you out, give you a fresh start, and call you by a new name, it's Jesus Christ!” She has performed across the country alongside notable gospel artists and even spent a month in Italy as lead singer and choir director with Elder David Bratton and the Virginia Union Gospel Choir in December 2019.
In December 2020, Anisa joined forces with RNU Records, an independent gospel label founded by longtime friend and high school classmate Joshua Arnoux. Since then, they’ve become an unstoppable team. Their first two singles together, “You Reign” and “Covered”, are powerful anthems of God’s goodness, and the duo has been traveling across the country ministering through music. “You Reign” was nominated for ‘Best Gospel Praise Song of the Year’ at the 2021 Maranatha Rhema Awards. Anisa also earned nominations for ‘Female Gospel Artist of the Year,’ ‘Outstanding Female Worship Leader,’ and ‘Outstanding Motivational Speaker.’
Her single “Covered” climbed the Billboard Gospel charts, spending over 30 weeks in the Top 20 of the Gospel Indicator chart and holding the #2 spot for four weeks before the chart’s closure in 2022.
On July 15, 2022, Anisa released her debut EP with RNU Records titled “Anisa – The Next Chapter.” The project takes listeners on a heartfelt journey of worship, praise, and biblical truth. It’s one of the best gospel EPs you’ve never heard... yet. Born from a story of resilience after church hurt and a broken marriage, this project declares that God is both healer and restorer.
In 2023, Anisa continued to rise. She was invited to perform at the Celebrity Basketball Game hosted by Stellar TV and Bear Tag Entertainment. She also received nominations for ‘Contemporary Gospel Artist of the Year’ and ‘Rhythm and Praise Artist of the Year’ at the 8th Annual Avidity Awards in New Orleans, LA.
Her 2024 single, “I Mean Jesus All the Way” featuring one of the top gospel rappers of our time Dee-1, became the latest release under RNU Records. Now, Anisa is preparing to release “Nobody (Live),” the live version of her fan-favorite single “Nobody.” Recorded during her live session in New York, this version brings a churchy, and hand clapping energy to the track. Get ready for “Nobody (Live)”—it’s gospel like you’ve never heard it before.
