NMWA

“The black rock was sharp-edged, hot, and hard as corundum; it seemed not merely alien but impervious to life. Yet on the southern face of almost every rock the lichens grew, yellow, rusty-brown, yellow-green, like patches of dirty paint daubed on the stone.'“

The State of New Mexico is a unique landscape that has birthed a culture that is in it’s own class. The desert has been known to be dangerous, desolate and consuming. It is also beautiful, striking and enchanting. People find peace here in the countryside and people find vice here in the city. The desert is a gorgeous place, and a place to tread lightly. This state and it’s people are all unique in the way that they embrace the culture and create artwork that is native to this land but understood on a global scale.

One group of artists that have been synonymous with the culture, state and region are NMWA. They are well known for their music, their business, their tours, and for being all around real people with a penchant for art. They host a freestyle event titled King of the Mic. They have Godsent who is a well known battle rapper in Universal Battle Realm. Their shows, tours, music and dedication to their craft show their true grit and they epitomize the culture of the State. Check out one of their latest tracks out now on YouTube and of course dig into their catalog and support the music from the homies.
