It is here! N'veigh's surprise EP, No Pineapples On My Pizza lands safely on new music Friday and it's all the feel good you will need for your summer days. Having gone quiet with his solo efforts since gifting us with double singles earlier this year, the Cap City rapper shares enough music to replenish his absence on our playlist.
Before we dig any further into the project, are we seriously going to let him call out pineapples like that without defending them? Eish! He goes ahead and opens the piece with a hilarious skit of a pizza order taking place at a dual set up of restaurant and funeral parlour. Excuse me? It is at this discovery that I couldn't keep my composure any further and I think this touch of comedy loosens you up to into his lighthearted world. It's not all jokes though as the menacy Nomsa Nene Freestyle comes on and you immediately wipe the smile off your face as you tuck into N'veigh's hard raps. If you follow his music you would've caught his, "you Nomsa Nene rappers," line and with this freestyle he pulls a flex to solidify his unf*!wittable skill. As if that was not enough, he calls on lethal emcees Captain and Solo for Villains - quite a trip given the title versus the undeniable RnB influence of the song. Rapping about grown folk sh!, the fellas take to the classic sounding production graced with J Smallz' impeccable vocals to rap about the hustle of life through many phases; the come up, love in between, and finally fighting to keep to your own tune in a shady industry. This is a fire collaboration!
The EP is a feel good occasion as N'veigh flexes his grown and sexy groove all throughout the project particularly noting smooth numbers like Falling. One thing you get the most of is his "good place" which comes out in the purity of the music as you trickle down the playlist. In a short space of time N'veigh manages to expose you to multiple facets of his musician. A true ghetto boy at heart, N'veigh happens to be compassionate, smooth, and equally gully when the scenario calls for it. You get a taste of all this on No Pineapples On My Pizza. Similar to how he is able to bring you to the fun side of life with Souffle alongside Zaddy Swag, he can easily shut things down in the introspective lane by wearing his heart on his sleeve like he does on Way Too Gone alongside AB Crazy. This project may not be the album we have been anticipating all these years but it certainly is just what the doctor ordered. As we await something bigger from the artist in the near future, come closer to the box, grab yourself a slice and dig in!
