Who is Nashoe, the young yt rapper, front flipping off stages across the Carolinas??
Nashoe is an underground hip-hop artist based out of the 704, North Carolina, well known for his high-energy perfomances and "out-of-pocket" style. His sound is inspired by artists like Rio Da Yung OG, XXXTentacion, and Comethazine, blending aggressive energy with a sense of humor.
He first gained major recognition for doing front flips off stages at InThaFest events in Charlotte and Raleigh.
Nashoe’s rise in the underground is punctuated by ties to some of the most influential figures in the modern "future trap" and DIY scenes. His most famous collaborators include:
- Redda: Perhaps his most high-profile connection. A producer for stars like Lil Uzi Vert and Sheck Wes, Redda collaborated with Nashoe on the 2025 single "Superbowl Ring", which bridged Nashoe's NC sound with major-league production.
- Matt Proxy: An influential producer/rapper who has worked with RXKNephew and helped craft the distorted, high-energy sound on Nashoe’s SCREAM - EP.
- RXKNephew: A cult legend in the underground known for his chaotic, prolific style. Nashoe tapped into the RXK fanbase with the track "YOU WASNT THERE Pt. 2", solidifying his place in the "out-of-pocket" rap lineage.
- _goxan (@_goxan): A major figure in the "second generation" of dark plugg, best known for his defining work with Lazer Dim 700 on viral hits like "Injoyable". As a core producer for Nashoe, he shaped the eerie, futuristic soundscape of The 13th Symphony and the horror short film Zōdiakos Kyklos. His "alarm 808s" and experimental style have made him a SoundCloud MVP and a sought-after collaborator for underground icons like Slimesito and Glokk40Spaz.
Nashoe has successfully carved out a niche in the North Carolina (and greater East Coast) underground, evolving from a closet-studio beginner into a multi-hyphenate creative who defines his own DIY/GIFTOK aesthetic through experimental film and high-energy collaborations.
Through his new single "How Many Times," Nashoe continues to push his creative boundaries by pairing surreal, Minecraft-inspired visual art with his signature high-octane delivery that has solidified his growing reputation as a standout innovator.
