Buffalo, New York rapper Ché Noir has been making waves in the hip-hop scene with her raw and introspective lyrics. Her latest project, ‘The Lotus Child’, showcases her growth as an artist and her ability to blend love and live instruments into her music.
In a recent interview, Ché Noir opened up about her journey in the music industry and how she found inspiration for her latest project. She also shared about her personal life, including running a barbershop with her husband and taking a break from the industry.
Growing up in Buffalo, Ché Noir was surrounded by music and was heavily influenced by her father, who was a DJ. She started writing rhymes at a young age and eventually pursued a career in music. She gained recognition in the underground rap scene with her mixtapes and collaborations with other artists.
However, after facing some personal and professional setbacks, Ché Noir decided to take a break from the industry and focus on her personal life. During this time, she ran a barbershop with her husband, which allowed her to step away from the music world and gain a new perspective.
This break also gave Ché Noir the time to reflect on her journey and find inspiration for her new project, ‘The Lotus Child’. The album is a departure from her previous work, as she incorporates live instruments and explores themes of love and self-discovery.
Ché Noir shared that the title of the album is a representation of her growth as an artist and as a person. She explained, “The lotus flower grows in muddy water, but it still manages to bloom beautifully. That’s how I feel about my journey. I’ve been through a lot, but I’ve come out stronger and more beautiful.”
The album features collaborations with artists like Jazmine Sullivan and Tarriona “Tank” Ball, and showcases Ché Noir’s versatility as an artist. She also worked closely with producer 38 Spesh, who helped bring her vision to life.
Ché Noir hopes that her music will inspire others to embrace their own journey and find strength in their struggles. She also wants to break stereotypes and show that women can be just as skilled and respected in the male-dominated rap industry.
With ‘The Lotus Child’, Ché Noir has solidified her place in the rap scene and continues to push boundaries with her music. Her introspective lyrics and unique sound make her a force to be reckoned with, and we can’t wait to see what she has in store for the future.
