Nemzzz Unstoppably Continues His Release Streak with Captivating ‘WYA’

UK’s Nemzzz is back in action, unveiling his sizzling new single ‘WYA’. Nemzzz’s rise to fame is truly unparalleled, having recently performed at Nicki Minaj’s record-breaking, sold-out show at Manchester’s Co-op Live. This follows the release of his debut mixtape in March, which received widespread acclaim and secured a spot at #17 on the UK album charts.

Keeping up a release schedule that is sure to keep fans on their toes, ‘WYA’ pairs witty, tongue-in-cheek lyrics and confident verses with producer Zel’s smooth, rolling beat adorned with lively vocal chops. The single is released today alongside a video shot by Nemzzz’s trusted production team, DonProd. The video captures the essence of summer in Manchester, interweaving footage of Nemzzz playing basketball, relaxed home studio sessions, playing FIFA with friends, and late-night runs for Chinese takeaway.

Nemzzz, one of the most promising breakout rap talents in recent years, made his mark on the scene at the young age of 14. With an old soul and a relentless dedication to his craft, Nemzzz has steadily built a buzz among the industry, media, and fans. He uses his music as a platform to guide his young fans through the trials of growing up. His tough upbringing in Gorton has shaped his music, which reflects his experiences with heartbreak, false friends, financial literacy, forging one’s own path, and managing mental health in the face of social media addiction.

2023 was a landmark year for the young star, marked by a consistent release schedule that included his debut EP, Nemzzz Type Beat, which was assembled in just 17 days, showcasing his innate talents. This was accompanied by a string of singles, including ‘Therapy’ and ‘8AM IN MANNY,’ which earned accolades from some of the world’s biggest rappers, including Drake and Lil Yachty. That year, Nemzzz embarked on his first sold-out headline tour and performed at various festivals, including Glastonbury and Ibiza Rocks. With over 180 million combined streams in 2023, 9 million TikTok views, recognition from BBC Radio 1xtra’s Hot For 2023, Amazon Music x Hunger Magazine’s Ones To Watch, No Signal’s Class of ’23, a nomination for Best Newcomer at the MOBO Awards 2022, and praise from Pitchfork, The Face, DAZED, The Guardian, HYPEBEAST, CLASH, Complex UK, and NME, Nemzzz is indeed making significant strides.
