Nashville-bred rapper ShaManic is set to release his debut album, The Artist, on April 21 via Classy Turtle Records.
ShaManic’s debut arrives nearly half a decade into his musical career and finds the young rapper grappling with the health issues he’s struggled with over the last several years.
“Growing up in Nashville, it’s kind of impossible not to fall in love with music,” he says. “I wanted to be involved. It was sure true for me. My music is more Hip Hop than anything else, but growing up I listened to everything: Country, Rock, R&B [and] you can definitely hear that influence in my songs, I’m always trying to incorporate something new.”
