Nova ft: Jeremy Mbiba - No Fear (Single)
Taking inspiration from Little Simz, iSong and Ivorian Doll, Nova is set to make her own mark. With hard hitting beats that meet Jeremy Mbiba’s luscious vocals, Nova’s sound is more distinctive than ever. Lyricism is a huge passion for Nova and is showcased in her catalog of work which combined with her extraordinary performance skills showcases why her popularity has grown massively. Her talents in partnership with Scotland’s rising producers create an independent and unique music that challenges stereotypes.
Talking to us about the release she says: “I wrote No Fear after getting super into drill over the course of 2020 through female artists like Trillary Banks, Ivorian Doll and Teezandos. I loved what they were doing and wanted to get involved, I was really inspired by their look and the subject matter of their rhymes.Teezandos had a done a really sick Mad About Bars with R’n’Drill artist iSong which I absolutely rinsed so much for months. I’d heard Jeremy’s voice through another project I’d worked on and I loved loved loved the skill in which he would create these haunting gospel-like layers that were so enchanting and rich in culture. I got the beat off Louis Seivwright and me and Jeremy got to work.The process of making the artwork was dope too. I got to tag along to a car meet and see inside a subculture that I’m actually pretty interested in, cars are sick (even though I can’t drive lol). I’ve had a lot of fun performing this track live over the past few months so I’m super excited it’s getting out there. After recently moving to London, I’m hoping to jump on a few stages here and bang out No Fear (and other tracks like it) soon.
