PRESSRELEASE:
The danish singer Natasja Saad has died at the young age of 32.
She was involved in a car crash in Jamaica at 2 PM danish time, Sunday. There were 5 passengers in the vehicle when the driver lost control of the of the steering and crashed the car. Natasja died shortly after the accident. Among the passengers were also Natasja´s best friend Karen Mukupa, with whom Natasja started her career with in the all-girl group No Name Requested in the early nineties. Karen Mukupa did not receive any serious injuries in the accident.
Natasja´s death is even more tragic in light of the fact that she was in the middle of her career breakthrough, both nationally as well as internationally, after setting off on her musical path at the tender age of thirteen.
In conclusion, on behalf of employees, friends and colleagues, I would like to state that this is a terrible loss for all of us, and for danish music. Our thoughts and compassion go out to Natasja´s family.
