Executive Produced by Hit-Boy.

“GRAND CENTRAL TERMINAL,” the latest album by Naww G, is an ambitious ode to New York’s legacy and an artistic journey that redefines modern jazz hip-hop. Influenced by the cool, laid-back rhythms of classic jazz, the album weaves a rich tapestry of sound that evokes the soul of the Harlem Renaissance and celebrates Black excellence, all set against the backdrop of art deco New York.

This project enlists the talents of producers like rémdolla, DviousMindz, and AWESME J, among others, each contributing their unique touch to create a cohesive yet varied sonic experience. Their mission was clear: craft a sound that embodies the essence of urban sophistication and history while pushing the boundaries of contemporary hip-hop.

Listeners are drawn into the world of Naww G’s introspective lyricism, which flows over lush, intricate production filled with piano riffs, brushed snares, muted trumpets, and saxophone samples. The beats reflect the elegance and grandeur of early 20th-century New York, layered with the raw energy of a city that never sleeps. Naww G’s storytelling captures the pulse of city life, ambition, and resilience, making each track a stop along his personal ride on the Long Island Railroad to Grand Central Station—a metaphor for his journey toward artistic growth and recognition.

“GRAND CENTRAL TERMINAL” is more than an album; it’s a sonic experience that pays homage to jazz legends while innovating for the future. It’s a must-listen for anyone looking to explore the intersection of traditional jazz sophistication and modern hip-hop dynamism.

Album Description:

NAJEE by Naww G is a bold, genre-defining statement from an artist who has quietly sharpened his pen for over a decade—and is now ready to be heard. Set against the backdrop of a hijacked PA system at his former job at Target, the album plays like a cinematic protest in real-time. Skits woven throughout capture the chaos, curiosity, and confrontation of his music blasting through the aisles, as customers and employees react to something revolutionary cutting through the usual corporate static.

The album’s cover, inspired by the Utah Jazz logo, is a triple entendre: a nod to the legendary jazz musician Najee, the storied basketball team, and the Jazz Rap genre that defines the project. But Naww G takes it further, coining his own lane—Classical Rap—a sound that channels the soul of debut-era greatness with beats that feel dug up from golden crates. Think first albums from rap legends, but with the clarity and purpose of a grown man in his third decade of life.

Released under UV Music Group and recorded at The Long Island Zoo, NAJEE features top-shelf production from Hit-Boy, the late J Dilla, and ELSTIANO The Architect. The soundscape is rich, warm, and unmistakably East Coast—yet it’s laced with Naww G’s “Feel-Good Rap” energy that balances street sermons with spiritual insights.

At 33, Naww G is in rare form. The opening salvo “MLK Drive Naz**” is a wake-up call—urging a community to shake off chains of addiction and self-sabotage. Tracks like “Grateful To Be Alive” explore survival, purpose, and black joy, while “New York $#%!” and “Gentleman’s Club” show off his humor, charisma, and jazz-club smoothness.

But at the heart of NAJEE lies a deeper rebellion. Naww G isn’t just calling for a boycott of Target—he’s planting the seeds of unionization and workplace revolution. It’s rap as resistance, delivered through razor-sharp bars and timeless production.

From start to finish, NAJEE is more than an album—it’s a moment. One that cements Naww G as a voice for the people, an innovator of the craft, and a man who finally hijacked the system… to be heard.

Welcome to Classical Rap.

NAJEE | 2025

PARIS LOVE is an immersive, atmospheric love-story album born from a short-term long-distance relationship between Naww G and Aïda-Louise, a woman living in Paris who inspired six months of creativity, vulnerability, and emotional evolution. The project blends hip-hop, soul, Parisian romance, and Black artistic expression into a cohesive narrative about love gained, love studied, and love remembered. Across these songs, Naww G captures the surreal feeling of loving someone across an ocean—the frustration, the beauty, the late-night messages, the cultural exchange, and the quiet heartbreak of realizing the timing wasn’t right, even if the connection was.




Sonically, PARIS LOVE plays like a walk through Paris at golden hour: warm, luxurious chords; soulful basslines; romantic strings; atmospheric builds; a touch of jazz club smoke; and drums inspired by both Dilla and French touch. Even the uptempo records feel cinematic, glowing with that Eiffel Tower shimmer. The production from Hit-Boy, Jake One, Shile, Burnsey, DviousMindz, OldSouly, Red’s Cook Up, and more gives the album a rich international palette—equal parts New York grit and Paris finesse.

The album cover, heavily inspired by Jean-Michel Basquiat, depicts love, culture, and identity through bold strokes, radiant colors, tribal crowns, and Parisian iconography. It’s chaotic, beautiful, emotional, and museum-worthy—a piece fit for the Louvre, honoring the Black artistic lineage that Basquiat, James Baldwin, Josephine Baker, and countless others carried with them through Paris.

Description de la chanson “Introduction” par Naww G (extrait de l’EP Paris Love)

« Introduction » est un freestyle brut et poétique de Naww G qui ouvre l’EP Paris Love avec vulnérabilité, ambition et virtuosité lyrique. Dédié à sa petite amie Aïda-Louise, le morceau mêle jeux de mots percutants et tendresse sincère, mettant en valeur le caractère brut de Brooklyn de Naww G et la romance parisienne qu’il vit. Sur une instru soul et détendue, il médite sur l’évolution, le sacrifice, et la course aux rêves plus grands. Des lignes comme « ma vie comme un rêve ou une scène de film / ou une scène sur Tubi » donnent une dimension cinématographique à sa réalité, tandis que des vers intimes sur l’équilibre entre travail et amour (« quand tu travailles tard c’est dur de passer du temps avec les enfants ») ancrent le freestyle dans une vérité touchante. Le dernier couplet rend hommage à la présence apaisante et la générosité d’Aïda-Louise, peignant un portrait intime de leur lien : « elle cuisine toujours du poulet, elle me donne le plus gros morceau. » En tant qu’intro, « Introduction » est à la fois une démonstration de style et une lettre d’amour — posant les bases d’un projet qui fusionne sagesse de la rue et dévotion romantique.

[Couplet 1 — Traduction Française]

Je vais changer comme les saisons, pardonne tous mes éternuements,
nique ton stylo t’es pas sur mon mémoire évidemment,
tout le quartier a besoin de ça, moi aussi j’les nourris,
quand leur esprit commence à gronder, j’leur donne de l’esprit,
quand les lumières s’éteignent je suis Pikachu,
je mens pas, et si je le faisais tu m’croirais c’est fou,
c’est mon tour, ils disent « s’il te plaît viens couper le son »,
j’parle trop fort, les keufs vont vouloir couper mon micro,
j’ai une bouche sale, mais pour les gosses je garde ça propre,
ma vie c’est un rêve ou une scène de film qui s’accroche,
ou une scène sur Tubi, le rêve c’est d’être vu,
je suis toujours prêt pour la caméra, j’suis jamais perdu,
je mange vegan propre, que des feuilles bien vertes,
je suis né prêt, j’écris des sons avec des rêves en tête,
j’ai des rêves plus grands, viens voir les miens,
regarde-moi faire une IPO, toute l’entreprise est mienne,
les rageux dans mon coin j’les ai mis sur le côté,
quand tu bosses tard, difficile de voir les enfants jouer,
j’ai une go épaisse à Paris, elle veut juste ma paix,
et elle cuisine toujours du poulet, me donne la plus grosse pièce,
moi j’dis c’est ça ma paix, je lui rends avec de la viande,
et des sacs marron de Bloomingdale’s, qu’elle n’a même pas à rendre.

“2K26” – 2K Game Anthem

The lead single from Naww G’s Classical Rap Shxt, “2K26” is a soulful, upbeat lyrical masterclass set to a classic-sounding J Dilla beat. Blending the energy of street basketball with the deeper lessons of life, the track uses the beloved NBA 2K video game as a metaphor for personal growth, integrity, and perseverance. Every bar layers clever wordplay with double meanings, drawing parallels between building a character in a video game and building one’s own character in real life.

From the opening lines — “this life like 2K, you gotta build ya stats, / Ain’t no sliders in the struggle, you can’t cheat for that” — Naww G sets the tone: there are no shortcuts in the game of life. Progress must be earned. The verse continues weaving metaphors of hoops and hustle, from “postin’ on the block, pivot strong through the traps” to “Point guard your Integrity, and bring the ball back,” underscoring how discipline, self-belief, and leadership define a real champion.

The song’s most powerful message — “your character’s your worth, it don’t matter who rich” — sits at the heart of the hook and theme. It speaks on two levels: in the digital realm of 2K, your player’s skills and choices define their legacy, not how much virtual currency you buy. In real life, Naww G reflects on his own upbringing — coming from humble beginnings and building himself through word, work, and will — to show that true value isn’t measured in money but in integrity, resilience, and purpose.

“2K26” isn’t just a rap song — it’s a motivational playbook wrapped in soulful production and sharp lyricism. Naww G balances street wisdom with introspection, urging listeners to “assist the youth with the truth” and reminding them that “every rep, every drill” builds the person they’re meant to become. It’s a feel-good anthem for anyone grinding toward greatness, proof that in both the game and in life, the real win is building character.

2K26 (Prod. J Dilla)

“Paris Love” is an intimate, soul-drenched dedication from Naww G to his girlfriend and new muse, Aïda-Louise, who lives in Paris. Over a warm, late-90s Jake One instrumental, Naww G delivers verses that blend heartfelt devotion, vulnerability, and poetic imagery—channeling the golden-era hip-hop storytelling tradition through a modern, cross-continental romance.
The record opens conversationally—“Salut, como chuva”—like a love letter whispered through headphones, before easing into a hypnotic loop laced with dusty drums and soulful keys. Naww G paints vivid scenes of mowing lawns at a château in the South of France, keeping love warm through storms, and saving Euros in the safe—turning ordinary gestures into metaphors for loyalty, peace, and endurance.
Each verse deepens the connection. He speaks candidly about his muse’s struggles in Paris—rising rent, a broken elevator, supporting her family—and positions himself as her calm in the chaos: “I’m that peace in your chest when the world gets cold.” Through subtle bilingual lines like “Parlez avec mon cœur” and reflections on their four-month, two-language love, the song becomes both a confession and a promise: to bridge worlds, build a family, and weather every storm together.
By the final hook, “Paris Love” transforms into a cinematic vow—equal parts street poet and hopeless romantic. Naww G’s tone hovers between J. Cole’s introspective calm and early-2000s soul rap warmth, making the record a timeless entry in his catalog—a heartfelt letter wrapped in vinyl crackle, sealed with the line:
“You could be my wife, mistress, and my Paris love.”

“Let You Down” is a soulful street-love confession that blends sensual honesty with emotional reassurance. Over a warm, sample-driven beat produced by Bailey Daniel, Naww G pours out vulnerability and passion, promising never to fail the woman who believes in him. His verses weave vivid imagery—from the diamond district of West 47th Street to quiet, intimate moments at home—showing a man learning to love with loyalty and depth. The soulful vocal sample anchors the record in vintage R&B texture, while Naww G’s smooth yet confident delivery turns it into an anthem for grown-up love, black intimacy, and redemption through devotion.

“Touchdown” by Naww G is a high-energy anthem built for victory laps and homecoming moments — the type of record that makes the whole city stand up and celebrate. Designed as a theme song for Najee Harris, the track captures what it feels like to win for your hometown, to turn every arrival, every success, into a communal W. Over a triumphant, soul-charged beat, Naww G blends swagger and sincerity, celebrating both the grind and the glory. From fourth-down heroics to private jet touchdowns, every bar paints a picture of resilience, faith, and pride — a reminder that each achievement is bigger than one man; it’s a win for everyone who believed.
In “Touchdown,” Naww G flexes lyrical precision and charisma, moving effortlessly between motivation and celebration. His verses salute the hometown hustle — paying rent for family, keeping the kids straight, and staying humble through the hate — while the hook unites fans, athletes, and dreamers under one chant. It’s a soundtrack for champions, whether on the field, in the booth, or in life. Every play, every verse, every touchdown is a promise kept: when Naww G lands, the city wins.

NOT A LOVE SONG (Prod. flowers in narnia)

“The Hood Good” is a jazzy, horn-driven anthem that flips the narrative of escape and reminds you that sometimes the soil you grew from is the richest place you’ll ever stand. Naww G floats over a cool, swinging beat, laying out a love letter to Hempstead while calling for community uplift, safer streets, and shared responsibility. The chorus captures the spirit of homegrown pride—the hood got everything I need—while the verses dive deeper into the mission: rebuild, restore, and reimagine what our neighborhoods can be.

The track blends witty swagger with grounded purpose. Naww G balances playful lines about Arizona cans, Prime bottles, plus-size models, and bacon-egg-and-cheese comfort with powerful imagery of cleaning up corners, planting seeds, and transforming boarded-up blocks into opportunity. The homage to Elijah Muhammad’s philosophy—“Make where we live a safe, clean, successful community”—echoes through the writing, shaping a vision of a better Hempstead created by the people who love it most.

The album artwork completes the message: a reimagined Hempstead village seal where Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. delivers a commencement address at Hofstra University, now framed with the bold declaration “THE HOOD GOOD.” Surrounded by history, pride, and resilience, the cover symbolizes what the song stands for—elevating the culture from within, honoring legacy, and choosing to build instead of run. It’s both a tribute and a blueprint.

With sharp bars, jazz horns, and a mission bigger than music, “The Hood Good” is a hometown anthem rooted in truth, self-determination, and the belief that greatness starts right where you stand.

DAY 38 🔥 — “Long Island, U.S.A.”
Produced by me. Sampled from De La Soul’s Once Again Long Island.
This one is HISTORY. This one is HOMETOWN.

Today I dropped “Long Island, U.S.A.” — an anthem for every kid from Hempstead to Montauk who ever felt like Albany and NYC take what we build and give nothing back. This track is about statehood, self-governance, and keeping OUR money on OUR island. No more being New York’s ATM. No more scraps. We taking the whole plate back.

I turned Long Island into the 51st State — passports stamped “Long Island,” tax dollars staying home, Hempstead City as the capital, and the Long Island Lightning as our first NBA team. And yeah… the G in Naww G stands for Governor today. 😤🏛️

This is pride. This is politics. This is hip-hop with a blueprint.

“All I Do” — Naww G (Prod. DJ Khaled & James The Saint)

“All I Do” is a declaration of identity, discipline, and direction. Built on a soulful, emotionally rich sample, the record carries the warmth and weight of classic hip-hop, while the drums hit with a modern, undeniable presence. The production feels timeless but current — the kind of record that could live in any era, yet speaks directly to this one. It’s reflective without being soft, confident without being loud.

Lyrically, the song is about consistency as power. When Naww G repeats “All I do,” it isn’t filler — it’s emphasis. It’s the mantra of someone who understands that success isn’t one big moment, but the result of showing up every day and executing. Bars about credit, money, vision, and growth aren’t bragging; they’re checkpoints along a journey from survival to ownership. The song captures the mental shift from reacting to life to designing it.

There’s also honesty in the record. The acknowledgment of past financial struggles sits right next to future certainty. That contrast gives the song its soul. It’s not about pretending the climb was easy — it’s about proving that transformation is possible through focus, patience, and belief in self. “All I Do” becomes a personal audit: what you repeat is what you become.

The album artwork extends the message beyond sound. The visual of YsUp represented as a powerful, monumental presence is intentional. It symbolizes education, structure, and long-term thinking — not just as a company, but as a movement. Black professionals walking with purpose, briefcases in hand, represent the future being built now. The logo as a statue speaks to permanence: this isn’t a trend, it’s a foundation.

Together, the music and the artwork function as a blueprint. “All I Do” isn’t just a song — it’s a vision statement. Naww G uses hip-hop the way architects use sketches: to show what’s coming before it exists. The record connects hustle culture to institution building, personal ambition to collective uplift.

This is rap as documentation.
This is art as strategy.
This is music that explains the moves before the world sees the results.

“All I Do” is the sound of a future being built in real time.

“17” — Naww G
This record is proof that my voice don’t stutter when the truth is rhythmic. I might stutter when I speak… but when I do this, it’s fluent. 🎤
“17” lives on a 9th Wonder beat — nothing fancy, no overproduction. Just a simple drum loop and a soulful vocal sample. That’s all I needed. The kind of beat that lets the bars breathe and the message stand up straight.
The song is a reflection on early hustle, early ownership, and early clarity. When I say “had a biz at 17,” it’s not nostalgia — it’s a receipt. Capitalism, contradiction, faith, culture, street economics, and creative discipline all collide here. Every line sounds casual, but it’s intentional. Even the flexes are quiet.
Lyrically, “17” balances humor, realism, and philosophy:
Business before approval
Clean language, dirty work ethic
God as the instrument, music as the service
800 tracks later, still chasing melody, not noise
This isn’t a hobby record.
This is a calling record.
They play me in the trap.
They comment on the records.
I see exactly what they telling me.
Day 66. Still working. Still building.
Can’t talk to me — I had a biz at 17.

Naww G (born Najee Khaleel Jeremiah) is an independent recording artist, entrepreneur, and cultural architect hailing from Brooklyn, New York, and raised in the suburban town of Hempstead by Caribbean parents who instilled in him discipline, creativity, and an uncompromising work ethic.

After attending Howard University, Naww G made the unconventional decision to step away from college and enter the workforce, juggling part-time jobs while refining his voice and vision. What began as a personal outlet soon evolved into a lifelong pursuit. By 2012, he was releasing music consistently, laying the foundation for one of the most expansive independent catalogs in underground hip hop.

To date, Naww G has recorded over 40 albums and more than 700 songs, with 13 full-length projects officially released on streaming platforms. His breakout debut, Diamond Tape, announced his arrival, while later projects like IWROTETHISINTHEWAITINGROOMGOINGTOTHERAPY showcased his raw vulnerability and emotional honesty. His biggest hit, “Nobody Beats The Wiz,” has surpassed 200,000 plays, solidifying his presence as a cult favorite with staying power.

His most recent releases mark a new era of refinement and maturity:
	•	Story of A Boy is a reflective, autobiographical body of work that traces Naww G’s growth from ambition to accountability. The album leans into clarity, restraint, and emotional depth, featuring some of the cleanest, most intentional songwriting of his career—music meant to be shared across generations.
	•	Paris Love captures romance, distance, and global perspective, blending introspection with elegance. Inspired by love, travel, and cultural curiosity, the album reflects an artist expanding not just sonically, but spiritually and emotionally.
	•	NAJEE is his most personal statement yet—a self-titled project that strips away personas and presents the man behind the myth. It’s a declaration of identity, legacy, and self-definition, bridging the gap between Naww G the artist and Najee the architect.

Musically, Naww G defines his sound as Classical Rap, with occasional elements of Chipmunk Rap—golden-era–inspired hip hop rooted in soulful, timeless production. His lyrics speak to introverts, thinkers, entrepreneurs, and visionaries, exploring themes of perseverance, self-mastery, faith in one’s process, and building something that lasts.

Beyond music, Naww G is the founder of UV Empire (Unrevealed), a creative and business umbrella encompassing music, branding, and intellectual property. He is also the creator of YsUp, an educational game and growing EdTech platform designed to make learning competitive, collaborative, and culturally relevant. Looking ahead, he is developing Denoko, a future cooperative business model rooted in shared ownership, community economics, and long-term wealth creation.

Naww G’s vision extends far beyond streams and stages. He is building an ecosystem where art, education, and ownership intersect—one that empowers artists, students, and entrepreneurs alike. As he continues releasing music, expanding his platforms, and refining his message, Naww G represents a rare hybrid: a rapper with a catalog, a founder with a blueprint, and a visionary committed to leaving behind infrastructure, not just influence.
