Nivea is in remission from leukemia. “I’m very grateful,” she told Tamron Hall this week. The R&B icon tearfully shared the news while appearing on Tamron’s daytime show on October 7.
The moment was touching, joyous and the type of celebrity update fans of the singer were waiting for.
MadameNoire first reported on Nivea’s health update in July, after she shared it during an interview with Cadillac Chronicles. While on the social media show, Nivea revealed her diagnosis while answering a question about what she was most thankful for. Her answer turned into a candid conversation about life, the time we have and the lessons she is carrying with her.

Speaking to Tamron, she announced she is dropping her first major music project in about 20 years. Nivea has released a few songs over the years. However, working with a producer and a full team again is something new. She could not stop gushing as she talked about the project.
Nivea is also learning new skills. We love that for her.
“I’ve always had an engineering mind,” she told Tamron and the audience. Nivea shared that she enrolled in school for audio engineering. She joked that taking night classes helps her keep up with the curriculum.
