Interview With Emerging Urban Artist Nasser

The up-and-coming artist from Orlando, Nasser, releases a whole lot of sound and emotions on the new single “One More Chance?”

Read on through to learn more about the talented artist.

Tell us more about “One More Chance?” and the message behind it.

One More Chance is a song about regret, pure and simple.

I started writing it during that period of time after a breakup when you’re still overthinking everything you did wrong. I even went as far as making lists of all my mistakes. But I got over the breakup and moved on, so I never finished the song.

Then, when my mom passed away earlier this year, I felt a similar emotion wash over me. Only this time, I was overthinking all the things I wished I had done better. And that’s when I came up with the hook and tied it together. It’s about wishing you had one more chance to show your love for someone. It’s like, as soon as a relationship ends, I suddenly see everything so clearly. . “One More Chance” is about valuing the people you love while they’re still in your life, not just once you’ve lost them.

What skills have you learned that have helped you in your career?

This entire adventure has been a learning experience. When I started, I knew almost nothing about editing vocals or arranging productions or songwriting. During the year, I’ve learned how to do all of that, by trial and error and by working with talented people. The greatest skill I’m still learning, though, is communication. When a song works, it’s because I’ve accurately expressed how I feel.

Which song of yours are you the proudest of?

So far, I’m proudest of “One More Chance.” It’s me being completely vulnerable and unfiltered about the loves and friendships I’ve lost, and how much I regret the mistakes I’ve made. In that way, it’s both an apology and a confession.

Are there any new music videos coming soon?

You’ll have to wait and see. But I’ll say this: there’s a lot happening behind the scenes.

What made you decide to pursue a career in entertainment?

Honestly, this career decided me. I couldn’t have imagined ever becoming an entertainer. Over the years, I’ve dabbled in a lot of fields. But even as I found success, I didn’t find fulfillment.

So then, I decided to pick the easiest path possible, and that’s how I became an indie musician.

Just kidding. But seriously, throughout my life, music has been my most consistent friend. I think about how my favorite musicians have impacted me, people like Aaliyah, Drake, Sade, and Michael Jackson to name a few, and I just want to be that person for someone else.

What kind of songwriter would you classify yourself as?

An extremely handsome one! No, really though… I think I tend to write from instinct, mostly because I’m reflecting on my real life here.. The biggest challenge has been learning to express myself more authentically. I like to think I’m becoming a really honest songwriter who is vulnerable and willing to share the obstacles I’m overcoming.

Do you have any hobbies or interests outside of music?

When I’m not creating, I’m probably doing something to take care of my body or my mind. I’m trying to be more into mindfulness. Trying at least. And from time to time, you can find me making it rain at your local basketball court.

What’s next for Nasser?

I’m really focused on getting out of the comfort of my own company. I’m eager to share the music I’ve made with the world. I’m ready to start the next chapter of my career, and start performing live.

Stay tuned.

Thank You!

Meek Mill Draws Mixed Reactions With Drill Take on Nico & Vinz’s “Am I Wrong”

Meek Mill has released a couple of songs that leaked online recently, giving fans a proper way to hear the tracks after they popped up over the weekend. “Philly Heathens” has been praised for its attention to street culture and youth affected by violence, but his other new album, “Am I Wrong,” has received a much more divided response.

“Philly Heathens” has been praised for its lyrics about street culture and the young people who get caught up in violence. “Am I Wrong,” however, takes a vastly different approach, remixing the song of the same name by Nico & Vinz as a drill centric interpolation.

“Am I Wrong” is now 12 years old, and its connection to the EDM sound of the time makes it especially recognizable to those who grew up with it. So Meek’s take is built on a familiar musical reference, but the response has been far from universally complimentary. A lot of the criticism has been directed at the hook. The production has also been called dated, but the track was leaked, which may explain its sound. But the strongest reactions have focused on Meek’s chorus vocals.

Some of the responses have been good, though. Some listeners felt the track was a throwback to the blog era, while others thought the criticism targeted almost entirely the hook, not the song as a whole. One Reddit commenter wrote that the track was good, but the chorus was bad, suggesting that Meek’s performance on the rest of the song was better than the reception to the hook may suggest.

The different reactions demonstrate the contrast between Meek’s two new leaks. “Philly Heathens” has resonated with audiences for its subject matter, while “Am I Wrong” has sparked discussion due to its interpolation and vocal approach.

Both songs are now officially available on YouTube so that fans can decide for themselves. The response to “Am I Wrong” shows how difficult it is to reinterpret a well known song, especially when a recognizable hook becomes the centerpiece of the new version

Drake Joins Karol G in Houston for First Live Performance of “Ahi”

Drake made a surprise appearance in Houston this weekend, joining Karol G on stage for the first-ever live performance of their collaboration, “Ahi.”
The surprise appearance took place during Karol G’s show in Houston, where Drake jumped out from the bottom of the stage to perform the song with her. “Ahi” is the latest from Karol G’s project No Me Arrepiento de Sentir Tanto, and the Houston show marked the first time the pair had performed the collaboration together on stage.

Drake made his entrance to a loud reception from the crowd. The rapper popped out from under the stage, bowed to Karol G, hugged her, and launched into their collaboration. With “Ahi,” the performance was not over. Drake stayed on stage and carried on with the set, performing “Janice STFU” and “One Dance” and giving the Houston crowd a long set from the Canadian rapper.

The collaboration also sparked speculation about Drake’s upcoming music. A rumor started that Karol G was one of the collaborators on the project, along with Molly Santana and Future, days before ICEMAN is expected to drop. Future and Molly Santana were among the names on the rumored list, and Future ended up on “Run To Atlanta.”

Drake’s Houston appearance comes as he continues to promote music outside the traditional album release cycle. He released FOMO, a visual YouTube project featuring visuals for several songs from Habibti and Maid Of Honor nearly two weeks ago. The project also featured a couple of unreleased songs, including new material with Yeat and new unreleased music with Don Toliver.

Drake and Don Toliver have also dropped a remix of Ella Langley’s “Choosin’ Texas.” The remix has recently sparked speculation about the artists after re uploaded visuals allegedly erased all footage of Langley.

But the Houston show shifted the focus back to Drake and Karol G. The surprise appearance turned the stop into the first live showcase of “Ahi” for the audience, while Drake’s renditions of “Janice STFU” and “One Dance” extended his surprise time onstage. It also gave fans their first chance to see the two artists perform their collaboration together, adding a live chapter to the release of “Ahi. “
