Nina Nikolina (born June 25, 1975) was a Bulgarian pop and ethno-pop singer and composer from Vratsa. Nikolina performed in a children's choir starting at age three and later studied at the conservatory under Ljubomir Pipkov. She began her professional career in 1996 with the release of her self-titled debut album, Nina Nikolina. Her second recording, Slânčogled (1999), blended traditional Bulgarian vocal styles with pop and new age. Nikolina experimented with electronic music and R&B on the albums S Zatvoreni oči (2001) and Ti (2003), the latter being her most successful commercial release. In 2005, she entered the Eurovision Song Contest national selection with the song “Ne Moga”. That year, Nikolina received Best Album and Best Performer awards from BGradio and MM Televizija. She collaborated with Kalin Veljov on the album NNIKV (2008) and released the compilation Pop i etno antologija in 2011.
