I don't think y'all are ready for this one and I say that because I sure as hell was not. Canadian born, Jamaican raised rapper/singer Nova Rockafeller can do a little bit of everything and demonstrates it with her 6 track EP, N.O.V.A. With plenty of big name features including ModSun, Chuck Inglish, Hot Karl, Nocando and Brian Logan Dales, Nova's style is quite unique. Blending sounds of 90's pop rock and modern hip hop, this is Nova's "anti-pop". The small collection of tracks is meant to show that she can rap while still showing love for bands like Weezer, Good Charlotte, and Blink 182.
This is the product of a lot of time spent in a little purple room with a few of my best friends after we decided that we didn't care about anybody's expectations and we just wanted to have fun.There's a lot to like about Nova and in some aspects reminds me of Jean Grae. Singing also isn't a problem as she shows off her vocals in a super catchy "Money + Mistakes" with ModSun. Enough talking...give your ears some new sounds.
