Nana Shares “GOTW”
Crenshaw-bred rapper Nana has just shared his new single “GOTW”. The track is a blend of classic West Coast production and the cut-throat lyricism Nana consistently delivers. The song details the come-up from Nana, from his humble beginnings in Crenshaw and how that experience shaped him into the artist he is today. Lyrics like “Man I been broke my whole life, I’m breaking the curse” show the hustle that Nana had to exude to reach the level of success he’s attained. “GOTW” is a warning shot to all his detractors, either support his blossoming career or simply put, get out of the way.
Nana’s had an impressive 2020 with the release of his project Save Yourself. The album weaves vivid stories of survival and redemption during these unprecedented times with guest features by REASON and Blakk Soul. A preacher’s kid growing up in the Crenshaw District of LA, Nana is determined to empower himself and inspire others to grow beyond the circumstances and environment from which they come from via thought-provoking lyrics and visuals wrapped up in quick-flows and impressive wordplay. Nana went on in 2021 to release the Save Yourself Session, a series of full-band, live performance of select tracks from Save Yourself coupled with interviews between Nana and other creatives.

Some records talk tough. Others are tough. “God Tier” falls into the latter. Godbliss linked up with Papoose for a bar-heavy banger that checks every real rap box: punchlines, flow, grit, message, and presence. This track doesn’t just knock — it slaps you awake.
Godbliss proves yet again why he’s a respected force in the underground — unfiltered, intelligent, and vicious on the mic. “I cut you up to link sausages,” he spits with zero hesitation, layering graphic metaphor with East Coast bite. Papoose, ever the technician, fires back with Bronx-worthy venom and deadly delivery, flipping street tales into punchline poetry.
The production? Dirty and deliberate, it gives both emcees the space to wild out without losing the structure. What really sets “God Tier” apart is how clean and cohesive it sounds while still feeling raw. This ain’t for the TikTok crowd. This is gym music. Cipher music. Real rap fans, do yourself a favor and press play now — and then again. You’ll find something new in each listen.

“Candy” is a seductive, & sexy ride where Omega the Poet and Foolie $urfin compare a woman’s allure to the sweetness of candy and the sleek luxury of a Mercedes.
The track blends dreamy melodies with lust-driven lyricism, capturing the high of infatuation and the temptation that comes with beauty and desire. It’s a sonic fantasy — smooth, hypnotic, and dripping with double meanings.
Check out “Candy” below.
Star2 x Sprite x Luh Kel release the new single and video “Where Would You Go?”. The song taps into the frustration of questioning someone’s loyalty to you. The verses seamlessly shift between English and Thai in a vibrant fusion of R&B-infused melodic hip hop that is both poignant and powerful.
“Where Would You Go?” was filmed at Wat Saket (The Golden Mount), which is a significant ancient Buddhist temple in Bangkok where monks live and pray. Many scenes took place in the cave on the property that displays a large replica of the towering 33 ft. “Bamiyan Buddha” from central Afghanistan that was destroyed by the Taliban in 2001, and recreated to bring back the lost cultural heritage.
“Where Would You Go?” is from Star2’s forthcoming EP, No Place Like Home, which is set to drop on May 9th.
