In a music scene constantly seeking authenticity and fresh narratives, Nunu! emerges as a compelling voice with his latest release, "Marry Me." This single is more than just a song; it's a heartfelt tribute and a testament to love's enduring strength, crafted by a man who has journeyed through significant personal transformation.
Nunu!'s journey in music began in 2015, under unexpected circumstances—writing his first songs while incarcerated for armed robbery. He credits his sustained passion and growth to major influences like Michael Jackson, Young Thug, and Jay-Z, who taught him the value of substance, creativity, and vocal versatility. Although he initially had no plans to pursue music, a friend recognized his raw talent and offered him access to a studio, sparking a commitment that sees him dedicating at least eight hours each day to his craft.
Hailing from the Southside of Chicago, Dakwaun Montgomery—known to his growing fanbase as Nunu!—has taken an unconventional path to his now-blossoming music career. Though he started his musical journey in Wisconsin in 2019, his transformative experiences led him to Atlanta, where he currently resides, fully immersed in his craft. "A simple (but hard) change of people, places, and things can really save your life," Nunu! shared, reflecting on his profound life changes and new beginnings.
Nunu!'s music defies traditional boundaries, offering a unique crossover style that draws from his past and present. He releases music under two personas: Nosy, representing his younger, wilder years, and Nunu, which embodies his current role as a married man, business professional, and aspiring role model. His tracks blur the lines between pop, rap, and hip-hop, showcasing a versatility that keeps his listeners eagerly anticipating each new release.
"Marry Me," Nunu!'s latest single, is an emotionally charged piece that delves into his personal life. Written during his time in prison, the song is an ode to his wife, who stood by him through addiction, family loss, and incarceration. "My music is like my diary," he admits, "and this is one of the first pages of my story." Every element of the track, from lyrics to instrumentation, was meticulously crafted by Nunu! himself, highlighting his dedication to maintaining an authentic, unfiltered voice in his art.
Despite his rocky past, including a brief return to prison in 2020, Nunu! uses his experiences as fuel for artistic expression. Since his release in July 2024, he has embarked on a rebranding journey, releasing three singles and promising to unveil a new track each week. This ambitious project aims to cement his place in the industry while showcasing the depth and breadth of his musical abilities.
Fans old and new can catch Nunu!'s live performances this December in Atlanta, including his first paid show on December 28th at KORE Atlanta. In addition to thrilling performances, fans can also look forward to his trivia and cash giveaways, along with the introduction of his forthcoming clothing line—a testament to his entrepreneurial spirit.
