Nur-D

Nur-D isn’t your typical hip-hop artist. Hailing from Minnesota, he’s bringing something fresh to the scene—
hip-hop packed with personality, high-energy performances, and a kaleidoscopic mix of influences. Think
contemporary rap infused with the pageantry of ‘80s glam rock, with a sprinkle of pop and funk. It’s music
made for anyone who’s ever felt like they don’t quite fit in. Performing alongside national acts like
MisterWives, Ludacris, Tyler The Creator, and the Grammy Award winning Minnesota Orchestra, Nur-D is
well on his way to becoming a house hold name!

Designated Best New MN Artist in 2019 (Citypages), headlined The 2020 “Best New Bands” show at First
Avenue, honoree for the 2021 National Philanthropy Day (University of Minnesota), awarded 2021 Best Live
Concert (Citypages), voted the 2022 Best Musician/Local Artist (Twin Cities Collective), Nur-D brings an
explosion of energy every time he hits the stage!

His newest album release was “Chunkadelic,” his most personal and hands-on project yet.

Since bursting onto the scene in 2018, Nur-D is turning up the volume on his signature style. Inspired by
funk and soul, the project is a vibrant celebration of creativity, resilience, and staying true to yourself— with a
sprinkle of “shaking ass and getting paid”. In addition to his latest album, Nur-D has nine full length projects,
each with their own flair to his discography - something special for any occasion. Whether you're going out
on the town with “Take My Picture,” bopping to “Collide,” channeling flirty energy with “All My Friends Are So
Hot,” or you just want to “Strut” your stuff, don’t be afraid to ride the “Black Wizard Wave” and celebrate
yourself! Work through “The Storm” of everything going on around you, kick it with “All of That,” let “HVN”
ring with community and uplift you, leaving you feeling “Glorious!”

Nur-D’s infectious energy and joy shine through, where sharp lyricism, humor, and storytelling come
together to create something special. His music is hip-hop with heart, wit, and a message, delivered in a
style that’s entirely his own. Boasting a fervent fan base across the US and around the globe, if you haven't
heard the name Nur-D yet you certainly will soon.

One thing is clear: Nur-D isn’t just making music. He’s making a movement. It’s easy to see why many
people are calling Nur-D the next big thing out of Minnesota!
