Fresh off the release of his 'Purple Octopuses' EP, Nanoon is currently in New York working on expanding his reach while sharing this new EP with the world. If you can't tell by the title, 'Purple Octopuses' is a special project that will put a smile on peoples’ faces when they hear it, like most of Nanoon's music.
According to the D.C. rep, “I want people to be relaxed when they listen to my music,” Nanoon said. “I want them to feel like they can sit at the bar and listen to my music and zone out and calm down. Being a music listener, I know it’s about how you feel. I know that when you turn on a song you want it to express how you feel. A lot of songs today don’t do that anymore. That’s why I want my music to put a smile on peoples’ faces and to make them feel like I’m going through some of the same things they’re going through, and take the game to a whole different level. I think music can be deep and influential like that. It can relate emotionally what you’re going through.”
Nanoon also touched on how he takes a lot of his experiences and emotions and puts them into lyrics on his phone – using both audio notes and the notepad to perfect his flows and experiment with different thoughts and rhymes, like so many other smart rappers today. Check out 'Purple Octopuses' below, as well as "All I Wanna Do" from Nanoon's upcoming mixtape, 'Gang Affiliation.'
