Abstract Hip-Hop, Hip-Hop, Rap | Abhi The Nomad Brings the Slaps On ‘LOCK’
Posted by VMan on November 2, 2018
Austin based artist Abhi The Nomad has had one hell of a year. From releasing his debut album, “Marbled“, in February, to being granted his visa to stay in the US as a working musician, to taking off on his first headlining North American – American Alien Tour, to most recently releasing a string of stand out singles, Abhi The Nomad seems to really just be getting started.
While, “Marbled“, has already become an instant classic, racking up millions of plays and finding support from top tier tastemakers, Abhi The Nomad seems to have switched gears as of late – bringing things back to basics and releasing straight up bangers as the year winds down. Today, he has just released his latest single, “LOCK“, featuring Foster Cazz & Schama Noel and it is a head knocking, gritty bomb.
Over a self-produced, grungy, electric guitar laden beat, Abhi and friends go in, spitting vicious bars and letting everyone know that there is no stopping them. Always known to do things to the beat of his own drum, Abhi The Nomad crafts a hard-hitting slapper that brings an undeniable energy and braggadocios vibe, putting critics in their place once and for all. With a promise of more singles on the horizon and a growing, rabid fanbase at his heels, I have no doubt that 2019 is going to be a huge year for the nomadic one. Keep it LOCKed.
