NEMS Levels Up to a Higher Plateau with his album America’s Sweetheart

At first NEMS is challenging to figure out. At one end he is joking on folks on his Instagram posts, and spitting menacing disrespectful bars, as he yells “Fuck Your Life.” But the more you hear his music, you notice there is teddy bear quality to him. As he expresses his vulnerabilities, such as the pain of the death of his father due to AIDS on “Keep on, “on his last album Rise of the Silverback. And the murder of his two cousins on the track “Cousins,” on his 2021 release Congo. You get different layers from him; sensitivity, intelligence, pain, and humor.  His latest album “Americas Sweetheart” which was cleverly marketed and dropped on Valentine’s Day is fitting. As on the album cover, he is smiling but also delivering two middle fingers. The great sarcastic contrast. It is like a Larry David episode, you do not know what he has gotten in store next. Some might confuse Nems as a childish antagonist, but he is difficult not to love. His talent and respect for the craft of hip hop is undeniable. He makes you want to root for him. And root they do on the lead single “Go Fat Boy,” which is an underdog head nodding anthem. The production is solid throughout, serving as a  proper backdrop for his calculated lyrics. Tracks like “CTE, “is bar heavy, and “My Side,” featuring Millyz out of Boston is catchy as the chorus steals the show.  While “Gunther,” is a hilarious toxic exchange with a woman who has gotten to his very last nerve, as he showers her with the opposite of compliments.  And “Coney Island Part 1 or 2,” is dedicated to his neighborhood, which is known for its amusement park, beach, and history of professional basketball players.  “God’s Hands,” has him reflecting on his hurdles and thanking his blessings,  while “Afuera,” is a heat rock with Tony Touch as they exchange urban slang expressions in Spanish and will be a warm weather anthem and played heavy at the New York City Puerto Rican parade. The closing track “Viral,” shows a focused Nems emphasizing his goals, as he avoids any pitfalls or distractions on his way to higher plateaus.   On America’s Sweetheart NEMS continues to level up, as Coney Island’s Mayor is expanding his grasp through America and Beyond. But there is nothing sweet about his barz, Go Fat Boy! 

Can Glorilla’s new album; “Glorious” draw Hip Hop Album Of The Year honors in 2025?

#MyCreatives what it dew…. Once again, Hip Hop Music in 2024 has really taken it this far with the jammed packed filled of multi-talented music with a mixture of current, and veteran artists really bringing the pain with quality, and well produced music for listeners. Now, we have one of the more known Hip Hop stars entering the mix with; Glorilla. Already with historical first week sale numbers, and popularity like no other. One or many will start coming to terms that “Glorious” could be stamped for high honors and awards in 2025. Make no mistake about it, Glorilla’s unique style, and tone makes her music not only relatable, but even a non-fan will have no choice to “bop” to her music. Her personality is a compliment to her already talented, as well as determination approach of being one the best in the industry and it shows heavily. Glorilla has some heavy competition in Hip Hop Music for her album to be crowned “Best Female Hip Hop Album Of The Year”. From Rapsody’s “Please Don’t Cry”, Nicki Minaj’s “Pink Friday 2″, Doechii‘s Alligator Bites Never Heal, Doja Cat‘s Scarlet 2 (Claude), Latto‘s Sugar Honey Iced Tea, Megan Thee Stallion‘s Megan, Sexyy Red‘s In Sexyy We Trust, Tierra Wack; “World Wide Wack”, that come to mind for me when it comes into 2025 possible selections for honors and awards. Now we know, and have come to terms that the Recording Academy sees things differently. For me, as a media figure, contributor, and fan of the culture this year has been one of the most fun-filled, and enjoyable displays of music within the culture. The parity is displayed heavily, as well as the contrast between the current younger generation talent, and the veteran artists is not a large gap by any means. The production quality amongst the albums are highly impressive and notable, as well as going into Grammy & American Music Awards season has never been this intense in a while. Don’t take my word for it, or feel I’m against Glorilla (I have no win in that race, or feel she is not talented). YES, I feel her latest album is a quality, and very diverse album. Definitely amongst the middle of the album where she goes deep with a few tracks, as well as the features with Kirk Franklin, Maverick City Music, Kierra Sheard, Chandler Moore, Muni Long, FRIDAYY, and T-Pain along with getting a Megan Thee Stallion feature shows that she wanted this project to be different than what she has already presented with her music. My Favorite Tracks: Procedure Featuring Latto TGIF Stop Playing Rain Down On Me feat Kirk Franklin, Maverick City Music, Kierra Sheard, and Chandler Moore Glo’s Prayer How I Look Featuring Megan Thee Stallion Let Her Cook (Grew on Me, but is still a “Вор”) I LUV Her Featuring T-Pain (Interesting) Queen Of Memphis Featuring Fridayy (A Solid track to close out) I will say, if she’s able to be victorious with “Glorious” in 2025 and receive multiple honors and awards, then for sure she will be cemented on the path of Greatness, and in a quick succession rate like no other.
