Nigerian rapper, El’Noel well known for his indigenous flows and lyricism on two singles he released
These two singles are free releases from his upcoming EP From The Wild . El’Noel is currently
designing the art to this EP. The art is already appearing to be one of the best of Christian hip hop in
2016.
El’Noel explained to iRapChrist what the art implies, and how it relates to the title of the EP From
The Wild also describing how it is different from Sho Baraka’s Lions and Liars.
iRapChrist: This art bears similar characteristics to Sho Baraka’s Lions and Liars 2010
album
El’Noel: Yea, but I think the concept is quite different, one part of the face was lion, the
other wasn’t fully human – that depicts liars..
From the wild is basically about transition from bad to good. This implies there is a good
part, and a bad part.
Even after the transition, the bad part which is not completely riding off tries to infest the
“new” good part.
So, basically, it’s not like both parts are bad, that’s why I’ll need a part of the face to be
unmasked
The art being “left and right” implies two things. Firstly, it implies a transition, maybe not
vividly, and secondly , it depicts, despite the transition, a part of what he transited from
still appears to be retained. What can then bring about the “perfect” transition is God, His
word, Love and some conscious decisions.
