Noname

Among the artists ensuring we start the year off right (so far, <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/future-drops-off-nasa-with-french-montana-new-song.1981576.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Future</a>), NoName has also decided to release a brand new song today. She actually announced that fans could expect a new song come January 1st, 2019 on twitter the day after Christmas. Lo and behold. 
The single is called &#8220;Song 31,&#8221; and it&#8217;s the first thing she&#8217;s released since her heavily-praised Room 25 album in September. <a href="https://www.hotnewhiphop.com/noname-becomes-1st-woman-ever-with-metacritic-s-highest-rated-album-of-the-year-news.67516.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">NoName became the first woman ever to have Metacritic&#8217;s highest rated album of the year</a>, thanks to Room 25. Perhaps unsurprisingly, the album has made many a year end list. It&#8217;s been a pretty impactful year for the Chicago native, and with the recognition of her talent firmly in place, her 2019 will likely be even better.
&#8220;Song 31&#8221; is free-flowing and jazzy, recalling an era bygone. NoName&#8217;s flow seems to be in a constant lingering state of slowing down or picking up speed, alongside the beat. She uses the record to reflect on everything from her career&#8217;s trajectory to consumerism. The song closes with a lengthy instrumental outro. Take a listen and let us know what you think.
You can catch NoName on tour in support of Room 25. Check the dates <a href="https://twitter.com/noname/status/1067943656110227456" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">here</a>.
Quotable Lyrics
I sell pain for profit And I feel profit watching Everything is for everything Rhymin&#8217; with casualty I know labels is backing me but My tickets be selling out And I&#8217;m steady raising my fetus Another hit from the fee
