DC’s Nacey is one third of the collective DJ force that is Nouveau Riche, in addition to being a solid producer in his own right. His latest orignal track, “Monte Carlo” is a mega jam, and I’ve had it on repeat since my first listen yesterday. Apparently 2012 will be the year that we get a Nacey EP, and for that I am grateful. If you’re in DC be sure to check him out tonight at Lost Wednesday

Wasn’t quite expecting to see those two names together, but somehow it works. The new single from the forthcoming Wale album is out, and it is indeed featuring the Lady herself. Simple and clean and catchy, this songs works and will hopefully bring Wale into the focus of the mainstream. Also included in your gift bag is a remix by DC’s Nacey, one third of Nouveau Riche. If this is your first introduction to the DC rapper, never fear, more lies beneath the surface. If you haven’t heard “The Kramer”, arguably one of the best songs (self!) released last year (where were you?), you’re in for a mind blowingly thoughtful experience.
