Nolan The Ninja stomps all over the competition, chews them up, then spits ’em out onto the pavement in his masterpiece of mass destruction, the “F_ck The Hype” EP. Offering a welcome alternative to the watered down, sing-song version of today’s so-called Hip Hop, the lyrical barbarian stakes his claim as champion of the underground; savagely slaying all haters and emerging victorious with a bullet proof crown! Enlisting a host of hungry, determined, and supremely talented producers(5ynoT, DaG, Just Pieces, Jay P), mixmasters(DJ Sicari), and artists(A-Minus, Hassaan Mackey, Phat Kat, and Finale) on the 11 track opus, Nolan & Co. showcase the kind of expertise and craftsmanship that can only be properly executed by life-long, dedicated, Hip Hop heads who truly understand the culture.
Whether being blown away by the explosive firepower of “live neguz.” and “cultivation.,” nodding your head in admiration of the mic skills in abundance on “clockers.,” twnty6.,” grotesque.,” and “deploi., or just shaking your head in awe of “creed.,” “emolument., “gusto., “fruition” and “reel sh-t,” you’ll find that EVERY track delivers! This has to be the most impressive debut from an artist we’ve heard in years! DJ Soko’s Left Of Center label has a winner on its hands and his name is Nolan The Ninja. For true, authentic Hip Hop you need to check out this project. Keep it underground and “F_ck The Hype!”
