Crenshaw rapper Nana announces "From the District to the World" EP, out April 26th
New Single "LEGEND" featuring Garren Out Now!
LA’s next great griot Nana announces the release of his upcoming EP From the District to the World out on April 26th. A new single titled "Legend" featuring fellow South-Central native, Garren is out now.
From the District to the World captures Nana’s essence which is irremovable from Crenshaw, the LA neighborhood that raised him. While his last project Save Yourself was an introspective glance at Nana’s inner world, this release highlights Nana’s fine-tuned ability to conjure stories about the city that raised him. The 8-track EP features singles, "Bet It Back", and "Heaven’s Sky" feat. Rae Khalil, out earlier this year.
His new single "Legend" fuses glittering production and Nana’s timeless flow, culminating in one of the rapper’s most dynamic tracks yet. Garren takes on the sound of a full-bodied choir through masterful reverb/amping up the listener for Nana’s hard-nosed bars about his rise in the industry. The chorus says it all: "Where we stand, the test of time/If I die, I’m gonna die a legend". By creating a portrait of the place that raised him so impeccably, Nana has carved out a permanent space for himself in the landscape.
"Legend is about establishing a mark and leaving a legacy behind. No matter what field you in", Nana says about the track.
Earlier this year, UPROXX predicted, "Nana got off to a strong start in 2021, and his first single of 2022 shows no signs of rust". With this new project on the horizon, there’s much in store for Nana.
