I’d hate to have to have to say “told you so”. JNOA is not to be missed. All this and Anita Tijoux too!

💙🎶Loved previewing LatiNxt for Chicago Reader

J Noa follows in the footsteps of socially conscious Dominican rap artists Melymel and Lápiz Conciente, known respectively as “La Mamá del Rap” and “El Papá del Rap.”

Loved writing about the sources of Esteban Flores' southwestern emo-tinged grungegaze. Plus, I really want to steal the name "Slow Joy". Thanks, Chicago Reader Gman Tavern https://chicagoreader.com/music/concert-preview/slow-joy-gman-tavern/

On his newest album, Flores lays out angsty vocals over a foundation of gritty punk guitar to create melanges of grungy shoegaze.
