PROFESSOR LYRICAL RELEASES NEW SINGLE “NO”
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE -- Hip Hop Artist and Educator Professor Lyrical releases uplifting new single "NO"
Washington DC - April 14, 2023 - Professor Lyrical, a rapper and professor who holds a doctorate from Northeastern University, and a masters in math and a BSBA from UMass-Lowell, is set to release his latest single "NO" on April 21, 2023. The track is produced by Jay Johnson, who previously worked with Pro on the college radio chart-topping hit "Yo That's Pro." "NO" will be distributed by Sony Orchard via Family and Friends/Freedom Corner Brand/D.i.M.E and will be available on all platforms along with a video directed by Josiah Mendoza who also directed Pro’s "House of Lies." The single "NO" is all about overcoming the negativity and obstacles that life can throw at us. As Lyrical explains, "While everybody's saying No, I'm singing Na Na Na Na Na / When all they telling you is no, I'm singing Na Na Na Na Na." The song encourages listeners to stay positive in the face of rejection and to look for encouragement from those who matter most, including family, educators, mentors, coaches, and friends -- while encouraging those same mentors to stay positive and patient with us as well. The video, shot at the UDC Bertie Backus Campus, features several key people in Pro’s life from the University of the District of Columbia where he is an associate professor, including colleagues Professor Albert J. Pearsall III, Dr. Emanuel Maurice "Moe" Yeoman, Diane and Jada Rich, and recent UDC graduate and mentee Christian “C-Steeze” Sutton who served as President of the UDC Artist Collective for which Pro served as faculty advisor.According to Professor Lyrical, "No is such a powerful word, two little letters though / Flip it around to a yes, and we feel incredible yo." The track urges listeners to keep a positive outlook and to be persistent in the pursuit of their goals despite inevitable setbacks. Pro raps, "Sometimes that critical thinking we think is missing / Sometimes its cause we missing these critical times we live in / Listen, people are missing their basics because their basics are missing," Professor Lyrical says, “In mathematics classes students can feel like one bad grade is enough to make them think they’ll never get it. I can relate to that and in life in general. When it feels the hardest, those are the times we must make sure we fight against that inner voice, or outside influences, telling us to just give up and quit. If we can persist during these times, then we give ourselves confidence that we are unbreakable and we can think back to these tougher times as sources of self-inspiration to keep on whenever we have other temporary setbacks in life.” Professor Lyrical is known for using the positive aspects of Hip Hop culture to empower citizens to self-advocate for socioeconomic change. He is an Associate Professor of Mathematics at the University of the District of Columbia, where he additionally directs faculty development for its Community College. He has spoken and performed at over 100 different colleges and university events. His previous work has landed on various national college rap music charts, including the "Top-30" on RapAttackLives, Urban Influencer, and the coveted NACC national college and community rap radio charts. "NO" is a powerful and uplifting track, engineered by Robie Rowland for Echo, that showcases Professor Lyrical's talents as both a rapper and a motivator. As he says in the song, "Use a little kindness in life, and put some effort in / You got a D on that assessment, don't say F it then." Listeners can expect a catchy beat and inspiring lyrics that will stay with them long after the song is over.
