[Like, Repost, Share!] First single from J.Nolan's forthcoming EP, Compass. The EP will serve as a creative exploration for Nolan after reverting back to his private home recording setup. "Peace" comes on the heels of a recent breakup and finding solace in the simplicity of being single again, free from the constant disruption of his relationship.

Fresh & Local presents our new mini-podcast, Small Crowds Matter. Hosted by J.Nolan, this show will give insight into a variety of ways that independent artists/creatives can build their buzz, take calculated risks, and create plans around their work without waiting on someone from the industry to come knocking at their door. Episode 1 talks about how artists can start throwing their own concerts and building relationships with artists in other cities to solidify unconventional touring opportunities. Stay tuned for more, we will be interviewing young entrepreneurs to learn about how they harvest their small crowds to create larger ones over time.
[Like, Repost, Share!] Music Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AFFtn5anqUg "Welcome" is a personal record that recounts a lot of events from J.Nolan's upbringing and kind of details his personal story since his family decided to settle in the city of Atlanta when he was just 8 years old. Produced by Tone Jonez, the sound is very much inspired by Graduation era Kanye West, one of Nolan's personal influences from when he first started making music.

LIKE, REPOST, SHARE! http://instagram.com/realjnolan http://twitter.com/realjnolan http://twitter.com/justhoughtz http://instagram.com/justhoughtz J.Nolan has been hard at work on his forthcoming LP, Rise of ATLantis throughout the summer of 2016 and is finally ready to present his new sound, which he calls "Progressive Hip-Hop." The single "Nobody Knows" introduces a more bass driven, bouncy approach that hasn't been heard on previous releases - but the lyrical content and depth of the music is still very much alive. "Nobody Knows" features Nolan & JusThoughtZ sharing their own perspectives on the sensitive subject of Inadequacy. Many people get so caught up in image, material wealth, and trying to keep up with the latest everything to the point that they lose sight of their own self-worth in the process. Some are tempted to 'do wrong when things don't seem to go right' and others find solace in overcompensating their shortcomings with false pride. These emotions run deep and can ultimately lead to even more than self-destruction if they go unchecked...
