Lyric

The title of the album, nayba, means someone from the neighborhood or something like that, and it also means someone who lives a life that they can be proud of, even if they don't seem like anything at first glance. This title was natural because I am currently living in my hometown, working a 9-5 job, and making music in what is commonly called a normal life, spending time with family and friends.
Over the course of about two years from October 2021, 12 songs were created with old friends, people I met in the city I went to live, and people I met or met through those people. I recorded the song.
PUG, who I asked to feature this time, is a person who always talks about HIPHOP when I meet him, and while I was writing the rap for this song, I remembered the theme and things we talked about, so I asked PUG to do it. did. FREEZ had always liked the album "i" and was fascinated by the first live performance he saw in Fukuoka, so he went back to Nagoya and asked FREEZ to continue the song he had recorded.
The beat was provided by Ryo Kobayakawa/C.O.S.A./DJ GQ/IRONSTONE/Aiwabeatz&SHOTO/820MUZIK/SCRATCH NICE/AIWA STONE. Ryo, also from D.R.C., helped with not only the beats, but also the mixing, artwork, and all aspects of the album, and IRONSTONE helped with the mastering as well. Uncledelicious from D.R.C. also collaborated on the design of the CD version.

I think it's an album that only I can make right now, influenced not only by all the new music in my daily life, but also by the new verses of Nas and Jay-Z, who continue to release albums even now. I hope people who hear this feel something, even just a little bit!
