Hadassa Nohemi Candiani (born February 5, 1987), known professionally as Adassa, is an American urban reggaeton singer and songwriter. She is known for her Latin-infused dance-pop music and has released several albums throughout her career, including "Kamasutra" and "Adassa." Her music career spans from urban reggaeton to Christian music.

Adassa has also worked in the entertainment industry as a voice actress, including her role as the character Dolores Madrigal in the Disney film Encanto. She received nominations for Collaboration of the Year and Favorite Pop Song at the 2022 American Music Awards for her work on the viral hit song "We Don't Talk About Bruno" from the film's soundtrack.

Adassa also performed the National Anthem at the Homestead Miami Speedway for the Dixie Vodka 400 NASCAR.

Early life

Adassa was born in Miami, Florida, and raised in St. Croix, Virgin Islands, by her Colombian parents.

Career

She has toured and collaborated with artists such as Daddy Yankee, Lil' Flip, Pitbull, Taino, Ivy Queen, Don Omar, Lil Jon, Kevin Lyttle, Vico C, Baby Rasta & Gringo, R.K.M & Ken-Y, Wisin & Yandel, Sasha, Baby Bash and Juvenile among others.

She also made high-profile cameo appearances with Ciara and Missy Elliott on "1, 2 Step" (Don Candiani Reggaetón Remix), with Pitbull on the title track record off of her second album Kamasutra, and alongside Tego Calderón and Roselyn Sánchez.

She was also successful in Europe with the song "Bounce" (duet with the Turkish pop star Tarkan).

Her 2005 single "De Tra" reached No. 40 on Billboard Latin Tropical Airplay chart. Adassa's singles "Dancing Alone" & "Little White Lies", held top positions on the German dance charts in early 2013.

She made her acting debut in the Disney animated feature film Encanto as the voice of Dolores Madrigal. The following year, she acted in season 2 of Around the Sun, an episodic audio drama.
