Nettspend new album release will be generational
The Virginia underground rapper Nettspend, real name “Gunnar Newstrom” is releasing his long-awaited album called “Early Life Crisis.” It is under Grade A and Interscope Records and was postponed releasing until March 6th at 12:00 A.M. sharp. With commotion all over social media, people have been speculating the quality of the album and are hoping for the best.
For weeks, Nettspend and other fans have been releasing small snippets or leaks of the songs and posting on social media platforms about the upcoming music. He has released many posts relating to it and leading his fans to pure excitement for this album which is said to be his “biggest project yet.” This will be his first studio album since his release of “BAFK” and his double hit tracks on “gone too soon” called “stressed” and “her friends.” Fans are left wondering if the expectations will be exceeded for new generation music style. Social media is buzzing with opinions and questions for the level of emotion and hype in this album.
Nettspend has been teasing merchandise and a video game after early life crisis through his platforms which allows access to his archival footage and unreleased audios. This album is expected to contain crazy, adrenaline rushing themes mixed with deep, emotional underground rap. This album will speak on more serious issues such as his youth, what it feels like to grow up too fast, and his emotions toward getting older. This is the reason for the intention of the name “early life crisis.” His new era of rap music has lead an insane influence on the younger generation as he is an 18-year-old successful rapper that grew on social medias and SoundCloud. His fans who have been around since his original release of “drankdrankdrank” that made him go viral say that it felt like they were “growing up with him” and look up to how far he has come.
Nettspend has always done a fantastic job combining deep emotion while keeping a high energy beat such as in his recent release “stressed” and his older release “nothing like uuu” with a fast-paced beat and deep, relatable lyrics regarding heartbreak, addiction, and lust driven relationships. Fans are hoping to see another album matching this style that keeps Nettspend diverse from the other underground rappers. The effort he has put forth for this album shows how much might be released and the interactive programs and post-show his hard work leading up to this.
Nettspend is one of the biggest rappers in the underground community changing the new generation of rap. He relates a lot to his young fans and continues to teach them about issues many teenagers relate to in this generation and will impact them for the better. The only thing we know about this album so far are the short snippets and edits on social media platforms, and only time will tell how well the album will do. The year worth of anticipation leading up to the release of the underground, niche songs will be extremely popular whether people like it or not, the curiosity of the release will be huge and social media will talk. This could change his career for good.
