Bred in the “Big Apple” but gaining a foothold on business and Hip-Hop in North Carolina while in school at North Carolina A&T, rapper Young Na$dak has a winner’s mentality and drive to be a successful business mogul. After he got his start in the game working with one of the mixtape world’s most notorious DJs, the late DJ White Owl, Young Na$dak has continued to pursue his dream of being successful in Hip-Hop.
“I’m a business mogul man, I got my Finance degree and I’m just focused on this music and my clothing line. I started to freestyle while I was in New York and I eventually got my first start with DJ White Owl. Now I”m just at a point where I’m mixing some Hip-Hop and R&B and we’re getting a great response,'” Young Na$dak explained.
Now Young Na$dak is armed with a dope new single called “Grill So Hard” and a business acumen that the average rapper just simply doesn’t have.
“It’s a real life situation and people are jealous and envy you for your life because of where you are at versus where they are at. The female can hate too but when I first made the record I never thought it could take off and its just a real life situation based on what you have that they don’t have,” Young Na$dak explained. “I have my clothing line that is a premium denim line and I’m launching that soon. Fashion and music are my thing, but overall I’m a business man.”
Remaking the magical fairy tale of The Wizard of Oz, following the Yellow Brick Road toward the Emerald City, soul singer Netousha Monroe and rapper/producer Rav.P have come together for a musical collaboration dubbed, Tinman.
The two artists have a chemistry that began in Puff Daddy’s studio 4 years ago and since they have worked together on several efforts including Rav.P’s previously released Immaculate EP. But while the collaboration is new, Rav.P grew up in studios and learned the inner workings of the music industry before his teenage years.
“Growing up in New Jersey, my dad played with the Fugees and I pretty much lived in studios with my father from the early age of 5. I recorded my first vocals when I was like 13 on reel to reel,” Rav.P said. “I have a Jamaican background and started off doing reggae, but I’ve since moved to Hip-Hop and Soul producing and rapping.”
Evoking the Tinman character and his missing heart, Netousha Monroe and Rav.P pieced together a soulful spin off of the classic fairy tale that will move listeners as they follow a powerful story of love and relationships in Hip-Hop.
“The ‘Tinman’ is the just the fantasy that me and Natousha created. It was just really good vibes in the studio and after creating one song we decided to just do an EP,” Rav.P explained.
Evaluating trust, love, loss and betrayal the Tinman EP will make listeners think about their own relationships as Netousha Monroe and Rav.P add a relatable texture and feel to this classic story. Accompanying the song is a LES Visuals directed piece that grips the viewer from beginning to end.
Fans of Netousha Monroe and Rav.P can look forward to the video’s release on October 18th, followed by a private listening party on October 25th and an iTunes/Soundcloud release on October 27th.
