American rapper and songwriter Destiny Nicole Frasqueri known professionally as Princess Nokia has released her new single, “No Effort.”
She released her debut studio album, Metallic Butterfly, in 2014, followed by the 2015 mixtape Honeysuckle.
Princess Nokia rose to prominence for her 2017 studio album, 1992 Deluxe. The rapper released another mixtape, titled A Girl Cried Red, in 2018.
Nokia debuted a radio show on Apple’s Beats 1 Radio on February 18, 2018. Episodes aired every other Sunday and allowed listeners to get acquainted with the inner workings of Nokia’s mind. The show has a total of six episodes labeled “The Voices in My Head with Princess Nokia.”
In September 2018, Princess Nokia was chosen as one of the six ambassadors by Maison Margiela to promote their new fragrance, Mutiny. In December 2018, Nokia released a “remastered and expanded version” of the album Metallic Butterfly, which includes three new bonus tracks. That same year, she released a mixtape titled A Girl Cried Red. Stefanie Fernández of NPR deemed it an expression of Frasqueri’s artistic and emotional versatility and praised how she “transcends them.”
In 2019, Nokia had her debut performance as an actress in the independent film Angelfish. In September 2019, she released a song titled “Sugar Honey Iced Tea (S.H.I.T.)”. It was described as “a bouncy, empowering bop built around dismissive lyrics about Nokia’s enemies.”
In February 2020, Nokia released two albums: Everything Sucks and Everything is Beautiful. Pitchfork described Everything Sucks as “locust swarm of angst, restless and frantic” and regarded Everything is Beautiful as “warm and expansive” in comparison to the former.
In March 2021, Nokia released a music video for the song, titled “It’s Not My Fault”. The single was released through Arista Records and marked the first one Nokia released through a major label.
