Noname

Back in September Chicago rapper Noname delivered her highly anticipated debut album Room 25, which was met with the adoration from critics and fans alike. Rather than cash in on the hype around her extremely well-received 2016 debut mixtape Telefone, Noname took two years to play shows backed by a full band and refine her craft before releasing her follow up project. Telefone established Noname as one of the most promising and unique voices in hip hop, and with Room 25 she stakes out her place as one of the best lyricists in the genre and comes into her own as a fully realized artist as she achieves mastery over the style she developed with her first tape. She recently performed a three song medley on The Late Show with Stephen Colbert and released her first music video "Blaxploitation".
