Originating from Gladwin, Michigan, NF first started rapping when he was young, using a karaoke machine to record his voice. He has cited Eminem as his primary influence, stating that \u2018he was all I listened to\u2019 at one point. His first album, \u2018Moments\u2019, was released in late 2010, when he was just 19 years old. Since then, he has been signed to Capitol Records, releasing all but one of his albums (\u2018The Search\u2019) with the label, and his music has not only been received with great critical acclaim, but has also been incredibly commercially successful, with \u2018Perception\u2019 and \u2018The Search\u2019 reaching number 1 on Billboard, and his latest album, \u2018Hope\u2019, reaching number 2 (so far). Now, he seeks to further promote \u2018Hope\u2019 by touring across most of North America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
NF\u2019s music is pure hip hop at its core, with some influence from his Christian virtues. Most of his music discusses hard-hitting topics and problems he faced not only in his youth, but adulthood as well, and how he dealt with them. His latest work, \u2018Hope\u2019, is some of his most personal yet, with themes of self-doubt scattered within the lines. Even without looking into the themes presented in the album, instead taking the music at face value, it\u2019s a brilliant album – the music is arguably his best work yet, and only seems to get better as you delve further into the album. Overall, NF has outdone his previous work once again with \u2018Hope\u2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
