A LIQUID BREAKFAST
At midnight on Thursday, AUDREY NUNA dropped a deluxe version of her debut album, a liquid breakfast. So, this is the perfect time for me to put you on one of my favorite underrated songstresses. You may have heard of her hit songs Comic Sans featuring Jack Harlow; or damn right, has been featured on soundtracks like INSECURE and NIGHT TEETH. As part of a notable new wave of Asian-American musicians and rappers making a splash in the American music industry, Nuna is one of the first Korean-American women to hit mainstream in her genre.And she’s undeniably cool. Not only in her shapeshifting music, which is a cross between R&B, rap, pop, and trap—but also in her style, which is somewhere between spacewear and streetwear, and in the avant-garde visuals she creates in her music videos. I saw her live last year and was absolutely captivated by her charm, energy, and skills. So you can bet I’ve spent all of today listening to the new tracks on a liquid breakfast non-stop.
