Born in the Bay Area and raised in the rural south, Tennessee rapper/songwriter nobigdyl.’s sound embodies the eclectic nature of his upbringing. A storyteller at heart, his lyrics are part memoir, part stream of consciousness as he wrestles with concepts such as faith, ego, love, and loss. Gliding over production ranging from hard-hitting to ethereal, dyl. employs wit and introspection as he explores what it means to be a black boy raised in the backwoods of Tennessee.
