There was once that time when Shannon Sharpe threw shots at Buffalo's rap scene only to be faced with immediate backlash from the Griselda crew. Not even a year later and it's safe to say that Buffalo is carving their own lane. Buffalo's Che' Noir is one of the newest emcees to emerge from the city. After signing to 38 Spesh last year, her honesty and pen began to shine beyond just her hometown.
Che' Noir and Apollo Brown have been slowly rolling out the release of their new project As God Intended that arrived this week in its 14-track entirety. With features from Black Thought, Planet Asia, Skyzoo, and more, Apollo Brown provides a perfect canvas with grimy samples for Che' Noir's sharp wordplay and sincere storytelling
Check out As God Intended below.
