[NEW MUSIC] Now Born - "Valedictorian - The Mixtape" | @WLPublishing

Now Born releases his latest 45 song project "Valedictorian - The Mixtape"

Now Born is not your typical rapper. No other rapper has put out a piece of work, recorded, and released while still in prison-like this one. Not only does "Valedictorian- the Mixtape" have 45 songs, but the lyrics are top-tier and the beats are original. "Valedictorian" features dope samples and stellar production from Wild Life affiliates; Raleigh York, RL Beatz, Marc Valli, Vango One, Trak'd Out, and more. Now Born co-produced multiple songs that appear on "Valedictorian – the Mixtape." The emcee has been incarcerated for 15 years for armed robbery and is on his way home very soon. As he says in one of the tracks on this mix, he plans to hit the ground running. This mixtape collection consists of music that he found ways to record while he was in prison. His music has appeared in movie documentaries and has played on several platforms based in various cities. This independent and determined artist is also an entrepreneur. 

Now Born is an author and publisher of 3 books (The Fiery Furnace – A Memoir by Now Born; Moving Target; Promise – A Bloody Love Story) and can be found at wlpublishing.com. Also, Now Born is the founder and creative director of the clothing brand Wild Life Wardrobe. Now Born has been emceeing and recording in between run-ins with the law since he was a youth. Now, as a fully developed man with both the knowledge and understanding of life, his music has substance. His stories are vivid, raw, and his bars are sharp and witty. His sound is soulful, aggressive, and strong. His truth is raw and the sound is guaranteed to grab you whether you are from the east, west, north, or the south. This artist has more music coming soon.
