A.N.O.is an underground hip hop artist native to Virginia. A.N.O. stands for Ain’t No Other. He is 16, raps, produces most of his tracks, and plays his own instruments. His current album is called, “Never Really Broke.” In it his beats are slow and simple. His samples blend well with the mellow tone of his laid back rapping style. It’s obvious upon listening A.N.O. that he is ahead of his age in his production skills and mixing abilities. Lyrical themes revolve around self exploration and A.N.O.’s life experience. The sound of his tracks will resonate well with people who listen to chill electronic jams and hip hop. You don’t necessarily have to be into rap to enjoy “Never Really Broke.” Outside of his current solo project A.N.O. has been in 3 hip hop groups including Dynasty of Madness, Cosanokestra, and The Hard Hittaz. He has also started an ongoing tour called The Outer Circle. It appears in addition to his musical talent he may just be a burgeoning entrepreneur. Watch out Ice Cube.
