Known throughout New York City as “not the next 2Pac, not the next Biggie, and not the next Nas or Jay-Z” but the “1st Nobi”. Nobi, has steadily proven himself as a force to be reckoned with. In a world of music where catchiness outweighs lyrical content Nobi does it all. The combination of work ethic, lyrical wit, authenticity, consistency, and raw talent has drawn a large following. Through the internet medium he has been able to grab ears everywhere from California to Germany. And fans aren’t the only ones listening. His talents have enabled him to work with names such as Tragedy Khadafi of Juice Crew All-stars (25 to Life Records), Havoc of Mobb Deep (Interscope Records), and D.O.E. (Mosley Music Group). Collaborations with countless other talented artists lay under his belt as well, including the members of his own Gritty Lyf crew, Trev Munroe and Big Pro. His music has been heard through the waves of Shade 45 on Sirius radio, 91.9 FM, 94.5 FM, numerous college radio stations and even on the world’s largest hip-hop station, Hot 97. Some of the most notable DJ’s of today have spun Nobi’s records or hosted his mixtapes. DJ Whoo Kid, DJ Enuff, Cut Master Cee, DJ Finesse, and DJ On-Point are just a sampling of the DJ’s who have spun Nobi’s records or hosted his mixtapes. Hard work and raw talent have lead to the release of fourteen mixtapes in just four years. Among these mixtapes are “Black Tears” and “Mistreated”, both considered to be classic tapes. The Halloween Massacre, his first street album, was released in October of 2007. Production for Nobi has been done by names such as GQ Beats(Maino, Gravy, Frankie Krutches), Cinemax(G-Dep, P-Diddy Black Rob, Redman), J. Janson, Strumental,, Adam Deitch(50 Cent, G-unit), and Nobi himself. Many times he has been seen rocking the mic at New York City clubs such as The Tunnel and the legendary Club Speed. A performance at Riker’s Island exemplifies Nobi’s desire to reach everyone with his music. Don’t just call Nobi a rapper, call him an “artist”. His thought provoking musical talents are those of a true artist, and he’s poised to take the music industry by storm.
