Jonnie Napalm

Call Napalm emotional. Say he play too much. Characterize him as petty. None of that has halted his development. In fact, his ability to disarm any slights against him and internalize them has resulted in the 36-year-old’s becoming a leading voice in emotional hip hop music. Now, with his sophomore effort, Autumn Hates August, Napalm has fully embraced his current position, insistent that he deserves it and confident that he won’t let up.
