Taking heavy influence from conscious and self-reflective rap, NYUON’s considered bars are paired with meditative production for a track that reclines gently on your earholes, despite the heavy subject matter. “Old Timers is a personal detox for me, like a therapy session, just me getting some thoughts and emotions off my mind and my chest,” he says. It’s a welcome break from rap’s more maximalist approach in recent times, and now ‘Old Timers’ receives a video that continues the pensive themes.
Running off the introspective audio, the visuals suitably feature NYUON rapping solo in the nighttime – something fans will be able to see in a club environment when he launches his single on May 25 at Boney, Melbourne. At the gig, NYUON will be joined by Kwasi and SquidGenini – watch ‘Old Timers’ below and head on down later this month. Event details here:
