Noname knows her new album is reaching the right audience. Just yesterday she announced plans to tour Room 25 across North America -- before long local promoters started coming out the woodwork with plans of their own, and thus was born a beautiful entreaty.
Room 25 is being lauded as a localized effort amongst friends, never more apparent than on "Ace" featuring Noname's buds Smino and Saba. Noname begins the 3rd verse by correctly handing the trio its overdue praise on a breakfast tray.
2018 certainly feels like a year where political unrest has provoked change in "our" cultural values. Within the context of rap: the trend towards lyricism is being ushered in with adherence to a better musical agenda than we could have hoped for in years past. Noname is an advocate for change, but also a beneficiary of its gradual momentum. Check out "Ace" and the rest of Room 25, if you have the chance.
Quotable Lyrics:
Smino Grigio, Noname, and Saba the best rappers
And radio n***** sound like they wearing adult diapers
And globalization scary and fuckin' is fantastic
And frankly I find it funny that Morgan is still actin'
Bruce Almighty, Aphrodite and Dominoes
Yummy biscotti, tamale, over mention my undertones.
-Noname
