SlickBoy Nae is back, bringing with him a new single, ‘Filtered’, drenched in love and pain, seeing the artist struggle through a relationship clouded by secrecy and excuses. Nae delivers these musings over an ethereal beat, the reverberant pads and acoustic guitar rooted with hard-hitting kicks and subtle hi-hat shuffles. His lyricism is thoughtful, a deep dive into his own reflections of the relationship, but still clouded in the love he feels, unable to completely break free from subjectivity, pining for the relationship to be solved
Nae shares, ”I wanted to write a song about that Love that feels real but isn’t — Filtered Love. Have you ever had someone that loved you behind closed doors and never in public?”
Originally from Baltimore, SlickBoy Nae is now infusing the sound of his Northern East Coast upbringing to the hip-hop scene of Port Saint Lucie. Becoming known for his fierce yet smooth production style, Nae brings an R&B romance into his music, constantly infusing new genres with impressive versatility. Embracing his role as an ‘underdog’, the artist is dedicated to building a sense of community around his music.
