Nef
Nef is an amazing producer I came across back in 2023 who has produced numerous records for a plethora of artist out of New York, bringing that authentic New York hiphop to the music scene. I love when I come across a talented individual who keeps that essence of Hiphop alive and thriving through their art. Over the last few years there’s been a shift musically, alot of artist are getting back to real music, not so much main stream but the shift is happening i’m here for it.
In 2024 Nef released a project titled “The Gentlemens Board” an 11 track project that really changed the game for him musically. Nef is a producer and DJ based in Brooklyn New York who has worked with some dope individuals, Dj Premier, Static Selektah who happens to be one of my favorite producers, and Terminology just to name a few. When I first posted about him when the project dropped I didn’t see to many people I know on that wave, fast forward today alot has changed. You can stream the project below “The Gentlemens Board”
Diving into the album there were a hand full of songs that really stood out to me, “Light Prisms”, “City Lights”, “Champagne For The Pain”, and “Gain Knowledge” which you can find on “The Creators List” playlist curated by yours truly on Spotify. From start to finish the project gives the listener phenomenal production that effortlessly flows, and each artist featured on the project didn’t come to play, they brought their A game.
Rating this project from 1-10 I would have to rate this project a solid 9. I’m sure Nef's current fan base are awaiting a new full length project from him and i’m right there with them. Follow him on socials @Producedbynef to stay connected to his journey. On a side note I would like to shed light on another project of his titled “Tabula Rasa” which you can stream below.
