'''Nesian Mystik''' is a [[New Zealand]] [[R&B]] group formed in 1999. Their cultural backgrounds unite a remarkable diversity of [[Polynesia]] by bringing together [[Māori]], [[Tongan]], [[Samoan]] and [[Cook Island]] ancestry. |

|||
==History== |
|||
Formed in 1999, Nesian Mystik united their diverse cultural backgrounds of Polynesia in bringing together Maori, Tongan, Samoan and Cook Island ancestry and English, becoming one of the biggest names in music. Nesian Mystik was formed in the music room of Auckland's Western Springs College, however, one of their members attended St Paul's College, also in Auckland. They compose all their material including the music, beats and rhymes. |
|||
Beginning with the Gold-selling Top Ten debut single ''Nesian Style'' at the end of [[2001]], their next single, ''[[It's On]]'', released in March [[2002]] followed as another Gold-selling radio hit. ''It's On'' peaked at #2 in the winter of 2002 in the New Zealand singles chart. In November [[2002]], the group released their debut album ''Polysaturated''. |
|||
''[[Polysaturated]]'' went straight to ''#1'' and was certified Gold by the end of its first week of sales and out sold every superstar out there during the holiday season. By the end of June [[2003]], the album was still in the national top 10 and was certified Four times Platinum. |
|||
Their third single release ''For The People'' followed the album release just before Christmas [[2003]] and gave Nesian Mystik a hat-trick of three Top 10 singles and became their third consecutive Gold selling single. In an unprecedented achievement, the groups fourth single ''Unity'' also achieved Top Ten. Their fifth single, ''Brothaz'' failed to do as well and charted at #12. |
