An Ode To The Strength And Resilience Of New Orleans
New Orleans rapper Pell and GLBL WRMNG release glbl wrmng vol. 1 via Ingrooves. GLBL WRMG is a new NOLA-centric collective launched by Pell and music professional Nate “Suave” Cameron of 20+ local artists and producers including Malik NinetyFive, Jzzle, Jelly of Tank and the Bangas, Lil Iceberg, Kr3wcial, and more. The new record is an ode to the strength of their beloved hometown and emphasizes the city’s heroic survival.
glbl wrmng vol. 1 aims to capture the beauty, vibrancy, and, most importantly, resiliency of New Orleans — a city that can attest to the harsh realities of climate change — while simultaneously showcasing the artists and producers who are reinventing (and heating up) the city’s sound. The album explores themes of positivity, community, trust, freedom of expression and is described as “A Welcome To The City” by Pell.
GLBL WRMNG will be rolling out community initiatives involving recycling and gardens to give back to their local neighborhoods throughout the year. The collective has been asking fans and supporters to donate to Concerned Citizens of St. John Parish, a non-profit organization 30 minutes outside of New Orleans. The town has the third-highest COVID -19 death rate in the nation (among other shocking statistics) and the nonprofit’s mission is to raise awareness about the high levels of Chloroprene in the atmosphere while providing solutions for the poor air quality.
Previously released tracks from glbl wrmng vol. 1 include “What is Love” and “504.” The debut single named aptly for the NOLA area code is an instant anthem that features a push and pull between live horns and an airy beat.
