Lithonia Georgia rapper Zane Smith has released his first song and project of the new year. 'Noise' is the title of his new smooth, short, yet sweet three-song boom bap EP. After being kicked out his parents house, Zane Smith faced many things in this new life; a lot of distractions or 'noise' for an artist focused on his craft. The album is named after a design term, like previous albums by the artist and former graphic designer. The cover art features noise, or a grainy image. Zane Smith sits on the bed in a rooming house on the Westside of Atlanta, a step-up from the streets and the men's homeless shelter he had just came from. Now, with some space of his own and time on his hands, he wrote the lyrics expressed on this album. Listen now. SHOP NOW
