BIO

As one-half of Capone and Noreaga, N.O.R.E gained a reputation as an MC on the rise after the release of their debut album, The War Report in 1997.  When his partner Capone was sentenced to a jail term, N.O.R.E became a solo artist and dropped his debut studio album N.O.R.E (Niggas On the Run Eatin) in 1998. The album became even more successful than the duo's debut, charting at #3 on the Billboard 200 and selling over a million copies, thanks in no small part to the Neptunes-produced single, “Superthug.” His sophomore album Melvin Flynt-Da Hustler went Gold in 1999. He reunited with Capone to release The Reunion in 2000. NORE would go on to drop several more successful solo albums and as a member of CNN, but in 2016 NORE entered the media space as co-host of one of the most popular Hip-Hop podcasts, Drink Champs. A legendary MC and media personality, NORE is still on the run eating.
