NoMBe is one of those fresh artists that arrives on the scene with all the boxes ticked – he’s got a solid set of pipes, experience in and out of the studio, and a healthy dose of charisma and style to boot. The producer-singer-songwriter has (unsurprisingly) earned quite a solid following thanks to his eclectic fusion of Milky Chance-inspired production and hazy Miguel-flavoured RnB melodies. Even Pharrell‘s been converted to the cause – the god-tier producer tapped his new protégé to provide an original score for his HBO documentary series ‘Outpost’.
NoMBe’s new single “Wait” is a smokey guitar-laden tune dedicated to the women in his life, from school crushes to his godmother Chaka Khan (what!?). Littered with warm guitar lines and rolling beats, it’s easy to see why triple j have already eaten it up. We’re predicting the rest of the music world will follow suit.
