GLDNWST Proudly Supports Nabeyin’s Grammy Nomination for Rise by Rocky Dawuni
Los Angeles, CA — November 22, 2024 — GLDNWST is thrilled to announce that Grammy-nominated producer Nabeyin has earned yet another prestigious nod, this time for his exceptional work on Rise by international reggae icon Rocky Dawuni. The track is nominated in the Best Global Music Performance at this years awards.
This nomination recognizes Nabeyin’s artistry and his collaboration with fellow producer First Born, who together created the vibrant and soul-stirring soundscape that defines Rise. Their production perfectly complements Dawuni’s masterful vocals and poignant lyrics, making the song a standout piece in the global music landscape.
A Celebration of Unity and Cultural Excellence
Rise is more than just a song, it’s an anthem of unity and resilience. Its genre-defying sound bridges cultures and musical traditions, resonating deeply with listeners around the world. The collaboration came to life following a chance meeting between Nabeyin, First Born, and Rocky Dawuni at an event in Los Angeles. The synergy from that connection sparked a creative journey that culminated in this extraordinary track.
“This nomination is particularly special,” says Kai Wilson, former manager of Nabeyin. “Unlike Nabeyin’s first Grammy nod for Heaven & Hell on Kanye West’s Donda, which involved multiple contributors, Rise is a pure collaboration between three gifted individuals, Rocky Dawuni, Nabeyin, and First Born. It’s a testament to the power of focused artistry and shared vision.”
A Legacy of Excellence
Nabeyin has consistently proven his ability to shape music that stands the test of time. From his Grammy-nominated work with Kanye West to his forward-thinking productions, he continues to solidify his reputation as a trailblazer in the industry. Rise exemplifies his evolution as a producer, showcasing his commitment to crafting music that is both innovative and deeply impactful.
