Living next to the famed Palladium Nightclub in the mid 90s, Nova met music artists like Method Man, Q-Tip and even Biggie Smalls. Living near the Lower East Side and attending elementary school at P.S. 63 (3rd St &amp; Avenue A), Nova became very familiar with the neighborhood. Spending countless days and nights hanging out in the Lower East Side, Nova began to love the neighborhood and it's immense diversity which has influenced some of the sounds in his music. Two weeks after turning 11, Nova experienced a tragedy that would shape his future. His father was murdered due to drug dealing activities. The death of his father sent Nova into a spiral of depression that would only be beat with the power of music. His older brother and fellow artist, Rated, introduced him to Kanye West's The College Dropout and it was at this moment, Nova knew music was his calling. At the age of 14, Nova recorded his first song and by 2011 had released his first mixtape, The Love @ 1st Sight, under the name Young Nova. After taking a few years to master his craft, Nova Mandarke plans to take New York hip-hop to a new level. He will be releasing the Rico Suave (Dave East - KD) produced track Right Here on November 4th exclusively on iTunes, Spotify and Tidal, with a follow up release near Thanksgiving.Website: www.nvmndrk.comSoundcloud: www.soundcloud.com/NovaMandarke\nFacebook: www.facebook.com/NovaMandarkeTwitter/IG: @NovaMandarke Associate Producers: Risa Shoup and Denise Shu MeiAudio Engineer: Timothy McAleer
