Oslo World: J Noa

Hard hitting rap from the Dominican Republic.

In a short span of time, J Noa has charmed and scored international support for her gritty lyricism, direct delivery and sharp verses. Born Nohelys Jimenez in San Cristobal, Dominican Republic, the neighborhood that raised J Noa fed her hunger for lyricism and dance at every turn. She built a cult following and viewership through her on-camera rap verses and rap battles. The videos caught the attention of many in the industry including veteran rappers who celebrated her bars. Upon signing to Sony Music Entertainment, she starred in the first edition of a documentary series titled ‘Mi Barrio’, which aims to show the new generation of outstanding musicians in the Latin urban movement. In 2023, her debut on NPR’s Tiny Desk went viral. The same week, she received her first Latin GRAMMY nomination for Best Song Rap/Hip Hop for “Autodidacta,” the focus track from her acclaimed debut EP, Autodidacta.

J Noas abilities span various homegrown genres like bachata, merengue típico, and dembow. Her lyrics center around the socio economic reality of the Dominican Republic, making her a voice and advocate for freedom of speech, educational equality, and against corruption. She is still developing as an artist, her sight set on new goals. Whatever the future holds for J Noa, there will be no compromise.
