"XXL The Break"

Name: Jimi Nu

Age: 23

Reppin’:Tallahassee, Florida.

My style and/or skills have been compared to: It varies, I mean a lot of people say [Young] Jeezy, Lil Wayne, Eminem. You know it’s on those lines. You know if I try to talk, I can talk just like Jeezy. Now watch this. [In best Jeezy impersonation] ‘Yo, chill ni–a what it do nigga?! It’s XXL Magazine, ni–a! You already know what time it is!’ Jeezy gotta lot of pain when he raps, a lot of pain in his voice. It’s a lot of punctuation in his rap, that’s why his music is not boring. So, I mean that’s cool. That’s an okay comparison for me.

My standout records and/or moments have been: Developing my team man. It’s the Music Committee. You know, everything kind of comes together at once. That was like the best moment [so far] because you can’t start a movement without a team.

I’m gonna change the game by: I’m going to change the game by really, really being conscious of what I put out and not over-saturating the market with free music. If you just keep giving somebody something, free then they’re going to expect it free. If I was selling you a car and it’s two cars—One of them were free, one of them you have to pay for—first, you’re thinking in your mind is ‘That shit is free! I’m going to go get in this!’ But then you get it and it breaks down right when you get off the block. Then you go buy the car and you paid for it but it rides for the next four years. That and not rapping about the same thing—drugs, money, bitches.

I’d like to work with: I mean two of them are dead. I would love to work with Biggie, I would love to work with ‘Pac. I would love to work with Eminem, would love to work with Jeezy, Andre 3000, Nas, Lupe Fiasco, Wayne, Drake.

My goal in hip-hop is: To go diamond on at least one album. I want one of my albums out of my career to go diamond and I don’t want it to go diamond 10 years later. I want it to go diamond in the next five years.

I’m gonna be the next: Because first of all it’s God’s plan, second of all I got the team, third of all…I got the drive and the talent. - XXL


"Jimi Nu "No Games""

Now just how did a newcomer get a 13-time Grammy Award winner like Eminem to be featured on a new track? Well, it all comes down to talent. And Jimi Nu is just that talented—even the legends do duets with him. The song—“No Games”—was produced by Jayson Brown and featured Eminem. The two hip hop artists definitely aren´t playing—as they come hard and strong on “No Games.
Jimi Nu, the young dynamo artist from Tallahassee, FL, has just released his latest single entitled “No Games” produced by Jayson Brown and featuring 13 times Grammy Award winner Eminem. Jimi Nu’s latest recording effort has incorporated the talent of that Detroit icon Eminem, who has established and solidified his position in the Hip Hop Community. Since 1999 when he first burst upon the Hip-Hop music scene, Eminem has been one of the premier performers for this genre. With his thirty eight Grammy nominations and ranked as one of the ten greatest MCs of all time by MTV, Eminem continues to dominate the Hip-Hop music community with his edgy, push the envelope lyrics and music.
This blending of the Mid West Detroit sounds from Eminem with the Southern sound from Jimi Nu leaves the audience asking for more. The release of this latest single is the result of the overwhelming reception from the media icons that were at Jimi Nu’s listening session at the Quad Recording Studio in New York City on October 23, 2012. This outpouring of excitement from the listening audience influenced The Musiq Committee to release this single immediately.
The continuing “Freestyle King of Tallahassee Rap” is clearly demonstrating that he is not a one single artist. Jimi Nu is planning an even hotter follow up to this track. He is in the studio editing, remixing and crafting his first untitled album, which will be released in the Spring 2013.
Jimi Nu won’t be keeping his fans waiting long.

Bio

Sometimes an artist comes along who is genuinely unique. And Jimi Nu is definitely one of them. The Huntsville, Alabama-born, Tallahassee, Florida-based hip hop artist doesn´t take the road less travel—he paves his own.

 Raised by his mother, Andrea Paige, from the get go he has been a standout. Since the age 14, the now 23-year-old has reigned as Freestyle King of Tallahassee. He´s been rapping since he was 10 years old. And growing up he had two big dreams—“to become the greatest rapper of all time and an NBA star.” His style has been compared to some of the greats—Lil Wayne, 50 cent, Biggie, and Young Jeezy. And it is from them he learned to rap. “I just listened to the greats,” says Nu on how he honed his own style. “My voice is my instrument. And my style is who I am.”

As he is readying for his 14-track debut album, he wants to use each song to get his mission across. “I want to make real music, something the common mind can relate yet be very diverse too,” he explains. He has a variety of tracks on the CD thus far. “There´s “Electric Raindrops”, which is ´bout my current standpoint--how I knew I wouldn´t be down forever, that a bright day was coming. “Lil Som'em” is just what it says—and it´s a real grimy Southern track. “She the Greatest” is about a girl is down for the ride with her dude no matter what—a ride-or-die girl,” reveals Nu. One of his favorite tracks is the self-explanatory “Haters.” Producers include Squatbeats, Buck Wild, Jay Brown, C Note,Beatfanatix, Aredus and Tone Legend.

 Like many artists who make a mark, Nu is inspired by this surroundings and people in his life. “My life, my mother, struggling people and people who have overcame—this is what inspires my music,” he says.

 Nu is prepared for what life unfolds for him. There are two mantras he lives by. First: “Pray to GOD, claim what you prayed for and thank Him for it.” Second, “Dreams can come true and it´s okay to dare to be different.”

Some artists are born. Some artists are made. Then, other artists like Jimi Nu shatter the mold.
