I mix between Roddy Ricch and DeJ Loaf, Nazzy the Mic’s “Hopeless Part 2” is one of those songs that gives you everything the artist has and says “either accept my scars and my flaws or GTFOH.” The 18-year-old Philly native first jumped onto my radar with the song “Shinobi” from her Unicorn Hunter project earlier this year. She’s got a lot of pain, but also is optimistic for better, brighter days–especially after baring her soul and letting it be known she’s not going anywhere. This song is one of three that the wise beyond her years teen put out recently on the Save Me EP. Check out “Hopeless Part 2” below and support dope music in all its forms.

If you like “Hopeless” or the Save Me EP and you’re in the DMV area, Nazzy’s actually performing at the 8×10 in Baltimore on December 21st.
