Harlem, New York stand up! Rising young star, Neek Bucks invites listeners into his world with the release of his new project UNIQUE. With UNIQUE, Neek redefines his artistic journey by pulling back the curtains and offering an unapologetic and unfiltered look into his life; and in doing so, proves why he’s one of the industry’s most underrated talents.
UNIQUE showcases Neek Bucks’ immersive, gritty lyrical style, and authentic storytelling prowess, as he dives deep into his personal journey and experiences. Those experiences include being incarcerated at a young age and being shot in the head as a teenager, and in his chest as an adult; and how those traumatic events not only shaped his life but how it contributed to how he parents his young daughter and how he strives to give back to his community.
“UNIQUE is more than an album; it’s a testament to my journey and the struggles I’ve faced,” Neek Bucks shares. “With UNIQUE, I was more in charge and hands-on with everything; from beat selection, the sound, vibe, and energy—it’s just me in more of a creative space. I also co-produced UNIQUE, and I even made some of my own beats which is a first for me.”
Neek Bucks is actively involved in uplifting his community in Harlem. His imprint, H4 Records, aims to mentor and support young artists in the NYC rap scene, promoting positivity and creativity while addressing social issues. Neek’s commitment to philanthropy underscores his belief in using his platform to make a meaningful and lasting impact in his community and beyond the music industry. On 8.10.24, Neek will host the second annual Bucks Day, his anti-gun violence and community basketball initiative (for all ages) that unites Neek’s community for games, food, drinks and camaraderie. Collaborating with health and wellness organizations, Neek promotes physical activity and emphasizes well-being. This year takes on even more significance, as a New York state Assemblyman will be announcing that Bucks Day will be officially recognized by the state. The second annual Bucks Day will take place on 8.10.24 from 11am-5pm at Wagner Pool Park.
In addition to the announcement of his forthcoming project, Neek Bucks has also solidified a significant partnership with Virgin Music Group, Universal Music Group’s global indie artist, and label services division, for H4 Records. This partnership reflects Neek’s commitment to independence, ownership, and creative control over his music.
UNIQUE features collaboration with Ferg, Joey Bada$$, Cash Cobain and Cardiak. In addition to releasing his new album, Neek also released a new video for “Entitled” featuring Lihtz. You can watch the video for “Entitled” below.
