N.ave speaks about the world as he sees it. He doesn’t trade in fantasy scenarios or dream-laden ambitions, he trades in stories that reflect his own life, spins tales where he is the central character commenting on the highs and lows of life from a very personal point of view.
Lyrical dexterity meets confidence and swagger, golden age 90’s vibes but laced with the fresh and exploratory sound of the contemporary scene, N.ave is the perfect blend of familiarity and forward thinking, of knowing your place in musical history and being brave enough to write your own chapter. From their he warps other genres through the music, it may be built on rap flows and hip-hop cool but unlike many artists working at the cutting edge of todays sound he eschews the trippy, trappy, electronic studio glitchiness and delivers his tune using the traditional building blocks of rhymes and rhythms, bars and beats. The new face of Old School!
Like all music that moves the ball forward, the core values and intent of the chosen genre remain in place but it also brings new to the table. Evolution is the way forward!
