Inna

Inna is an act on the Starverb influence map. Their sound grew out of Christina Aguilera, Minelli, Carla's Dreams, Pink and Mira. Those roots explain a lot about how Inna arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Andreea Banica, Minelli, Play & Win, Edward Maya and Morandi, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Andrei Ursu and La La Love, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 36 connections around Inna, reaching back through Christina Aguilera and forward to Andrei Ursu.
