Noname shares new song ‘Rainforest’
Today Noname releases her first new song of 2021 with ‘RAINFOREST‘. Listen HERE.
‘RAINFOREST‘ is produced by The Kount and featuring vocals from frequent collaborator Adam Ness. She has been teasing that her new album Factory Baby will arrive later this year. Along with working on new music, Noname has stayed active with Noname Book Club, an online/irl community dedicated to uplifting POC voices.
Noname (AKA Fatimah Warner) grew up in Bronzeville, a historic neighbourhood on the Southside of Chicago that famously attracted accomplished black artists and intellectuals of all types. Fatimah first discovered her love for wordplay while taking a creative writing class as a sophomore in high school. She became enamoured with poetry and spoken word – pouring over Def Poetry Jam clips on YouTube and attending open mics around the city. After impressive appearances as Noname Gypsy on early Chance the Rapper and Mick Jenkins mixtapes, she gained a cult-like following online that helped set the stage for the life-changing release of Telefone.
