Noobie presents his latest, waved out single that finds him dodging paying his “Taxes”.
“The song actually began as a farce, when I freestyling with my friends at a party,” said Noobie. “One thing led to another, and I had randomly said the single’s chorus line, ‘I’m Michael Jackson, I never pay my taxes.’ We all burst out laughing, looked at one another, and agreed that we needed to turn it into a hook.”
Known for being light hearted, and as a kid who allegedly doesn’t exactly pay his taxes, Noobie is the stage name of Nebraska-based hip hop artist. Pairing cheeky, whimsical words with invigorating beats, Noobie embodies what it means to be an up-and-coming artist in today’s politic climate.
Born in Vietnam in 1993, Noobie first broke into the music with piano and guitar lessons. While being a photographer full time- he’s literally gone from shooting weddings to shooting up the kitchen – referencing the convivial scenes in his “Taxes” music video. With a natural inclination for artistic expression, it only made sense that Noobie took his talents into the realm of music.
It’s safe to say Noobie’s sound is an eclectic blend of today’s most influential sounds, ranging from mainstream melodies to your underground undisguised lyrics. Citing his biggest influences as battle raps URL/King of the Dot along with folk artist Tallest Man On Earth. As Noobie is striving towards solidifying his brand and following, he is hoping to release more music in the months to come.
