Nyota Parker is a rapper, vocalist and songwriter with Congolese and Irish heritage, based in Cape Town, South Africa. Her uniquely mixed background allows her to draw from rap and hip hop, jazz, trap, soul and more into what she terms as "Trazz." She started recording professionally at the age of 16 when she linked with mixing and mastering engineer Jay Loopz who help record her first set of records alongside her cousin J Suave. She later won a competition that gave her the chance to open up for South Africa's biggest artists, Nasty C and A-Reece and she hasn't looked back since.
The 21-year-old artist recently dropped her debut album Spectrum last November and its deluxe version earlier this month and now she shares the visual for the title track. The record is a blend of lofi, soulful textures with soft trap drum grooves provided by American producer, Jazz Groupiez. Nyota sure sounds at home and delivers a laidback unapologetic performance with insightful lyrics that dwell on self growth, awareness and focusing on one's dreams despite the odds.
The video is shot by Pink Lemonade Skate who makes use of the summer aesthetic of Cape Town, capturing the beautiful serene scenery and of course Nyota's laidback and unassuming performance style.
